For the second part, I am saying that the people I enslaved in the morning still slaves in the evening regardless I assigned them to farm, factory or army. For this reason MC cant expect this army to follow him in a civil war at the city, while horde wating out of the gates. So MC can't kill Taiana. For same reason, he cant risk to "dont show" Taiana to public too long because if noone see her, than they can declare her death and overthrow MC. So punishing Taiana must wait until MC destroys Dex and Fau-or whatever the name of eastern lord-.
I mean if u use that logic, these slave recruited soldiers would have no qualms about shooting at the own citizens, cause why would they care, it is the city which raids them regulary, kills, rapes and enslave them...
these soldiers surely wouldn't give a fuck about what happens to Taina, if they could kill scum like Fu they would be happy to do so.
Most likely they would support the MC, a fellow wastelander who lost his own people do to a raid, which want to change the city, on the other hand they would probably kill him if he trys to raid a human settlement.
Yeah i don't think Taina is that important to the citizens that they would revolt for her, even less if their live is already in danger do to the horde and they need a strong leader.
About unspoken rule of city, it makes sense, lorewise. If you are lacking a resource, you cant waste it. So impregnating a woman forcefully and forcing her to give birth that child makes much more sense than simply killing her in term of punishment in that setting.
Sorry but no, this unspoken rule is just bs to give a reason not to kill Taina/Megan, even more so as Dex next words are let's kill the sleeping, the women and children...and i'm sure if Taina's plan would have been to poisen the queen, she would be dead.
In the first place, a unspoken rule is a more like a guidline of behavior and not law.
It would make sense to be more lenient with the method of punishment for women in general...well if u can call rape and living as a baby factory lenient...
But women are not that scare that there would be a reason to let the dangerous ones alive (political or otherwise).
Imo this update only made Taina even worse than she already was.
To be blunt, her little talk felt more like moking than anything else and i would really want the option to punch her in the face and throw her in the prison afterwards, keeping her in a position of power and in a position where she can easely plot against the MC is just stupid.
Even if the MC would need her alive (doubt) there is no reason not to torture her as a traitor, or she can watch Megan being raped by that fat friend of the MC and the soldiers, maybe she can share Megans fate.
