Ok, this is a example a bit more extreme than what I originally thought (you had it rough), but it does get the point across.Something similar happened in Brazil. Our first Emperor was extremely authoritarian, he wrote our first constitution in a way that his power was indispensable for the political functioning of the country. Unfortunately for Brazil, he was a terrible leader and had to leave the country due to his unpopularity. His successor, his son, was a baby, creating a power vacuum. The result was a decade of civil war, separatist movements, political crisis and economic bankruptcy, almost resulting in the death of Brazil. I can see something similar happening, but with magic instead of politics in the world of GG.
And even if it's not realistic, it could make for a good narrative so I don't mind too much.
Yeah, but you would also make sure that the location of the magic circle/artifact is a kept secret to avoid just that or you could straight out hide the very existence of it and just reveal it to a few, high ranking individuals.There's cons and pros to all variants.
For example, someone could destroy the magic circle or the artifact. Then what? Try to rebuild it while Keisiema actively crumbles?
At the same time, having a powerfull Giantess as the "anchor" of the spell - means you first have to deal with the giantess if you want to make Keisiema fall.
I'd argue Kendra assassinating her mother, while she slept, was an exception among exceptions. You know, not every day you see children try to murder their sleeping parents.
And while having a powerful giantess as the “anchor” does make sense, it seemed to me at least that Kendra/Maryen’s mother was quite the trigger happy person (like I understand not liking your daughter’s friend, but ordering a hit job on them is a bit excessive), and they had various wars with homaspernia so if anything happened to her, they wouldn’t even had the time to salvage anything.
It’s not always the best ones who survives.
