Oh that was a very interesting choice of dialogue at the bottom of the ravine there.
Jaania is unravelling, or becoming more cocooned (depending on how you see it), and that somehow has been less interesting than what preceded that cutscene.
I dont know why, but it gave me mild flirting vibes (albeit one sided) between Zvezdana and Alexander (Or maybe that was just me) - but that was a nice touch showing that there is an inherent interest for her, in what goes on even beyond the scope of the Shapeless. Not to mention how within the span of 3/4 rooms, Alex went from "So its INTERESTING how I got this way, ISNT IT WARLIC?" to "Warlic, take the weird lady away from me this instant." XD
Regarding the topic of souls. Writing this, it gives me some thoughts.
I feel like the concept of the souls being pushed being quite interesting. To me, it semes closer to a magnet being affected by different fields and different metals - some pushed, some pulled, others ignored outright, and so on. Mentally thats the image I got at least.
I like how Aegis was introduced to others - otherwise you only see him in RARE occurrences - and now he's meeting the main cast: Warlic, Xan, Seppy, and Alteon.
I wasn't sure if it was because I had it equipped but Zvezdana mentions that I'm also a chaosweaver - when we explain our connection to Aegis. I tried again with other classes, but it remains.
Or is having a soul-ally just a general thing for anyone who is a chaos weaver - I'm not 100% certain here.
I also love how we look like we're having a mini panic attack when mentioning our affinity to ice - like he's thinking back to when he was frozen for so long.
Which brings me to the thoughts I had when writing this.
We have an affinity towards Ice - both through Aegis, and through our time spent frozen.
Does that mean Jaania also has that? Similar stories - or would her newly formed soul-ally make her driven to another part of the elemental plane?
Because I dont see her struggling as much either being so close to the core.
Arkantus apparently is rejected by magic (or to that effect) - so I'm curious how he's also doing.
But the other recruits - again. Alteon feels like he's getting CRUSHED, and the rose are just... there. Makes me wonder.
