    As much as I don’t like the MSQ and Wuk Lamat I think it is kinda normal?

    She is the Dawnservant after all so her being mentioned is more or less normal.

    Now what I take issue with is twofold:

    1. Koana not being mentioned nearly as often despite being Dawnservant as well.
    2. Us just being mentioned as her “retainer” or similar even when directly being talked to. Makes it like we aren’t even a person.


    I do agree though that she is even mentioned in things where there is no need for that like side quests or even quest texts or the minstrel.

    Heurchefant is truly overdone I agree, but I don't ever remember having a Haurchefant jumpscare in a beast tribe quest or a voiced dialogue during an allience raid going "Wow isn't haurchefant so cool!"

    I hated Zenos, so everytime he was mentioned, alluded, to or shown on screen, I was annoyed. Could it just be that, since you don't like Wuk Lamat, you notice her more?

    I didn't even remember that she was mentioned in the Alliance Raid series. I mean I believe you that she was, but it didn't stick out to me because I think Wuk Lamat is alright.
    The only time I can recall is when Bakool Ja Ja says "Wuk Lamat chose well" when he admires our power and that we were able to defeat one of the bosses and when he wants to use force to scare people out of the rift leading to Jueno because he states that he already is in debt to her

    also wouldn't it be more weird if a city state leader wasn't mentioned by her people

    No it wouldn't be weird for her to be not mentioned, the fact that she is mentioned is weird. "Wuk Lamat chose well" is a pretty damn weird way to compliment our actions.

    I bet at least 7.1 7.2 and 7.3 were pre-written, so I doubt they can course correct until like one year from now. That's why Yoshi P needs to sell you on the cat in his nonsense P.R interviews.

    And we are here with him as individuals on an investigation into an anomaly, we are not doing something in Wuk Lamat's name. During the rite of succession that sort of wording would have somewhat made sense. But "[Someone] chose well" is a compliment you give to a subordinate of someone, like if someone was complimenting the prowess of a maelstrom commander by saying "Merlwyb chose well".

    He knows us directly because we pulled Wuk Lamat's ass out of the fire when he kidnapped her, and we made him afraid without even beating him up.

    It is entirely weird for him to compliment us that way, as it simultaneously praises Wuk more than it does us.

    She's not here. Her judgment had nothing to do with getting our aid, that was Erenville's judgment. Her judgment has nothing to do with our strength. There is 0 reason to praise her.

    It'd be way cooler if he realized we were the ones that killed the other Blessed Sibling in Wanderer's Palace HM and said something like, "No wonder Manxome Molaal Ja Ja didn't make it home..."

    But no, this is Dawntrail, so they have to take every opportunity to fellate Wookiee Lamar.
