I agree.
The No1 channel in the Elven capital is probably the Human Reality Channel with Jerry Springer, Maury Povich and all the other outstanding TV shows showing the cream of human society. Would explain a lot of hatred.I agree.
I also think it is quite within Medb's character to gloat a bit, like her adding a video introduction:
'Have you seen the Grandmaster's son? I have...
You seem to like all your secrets
How's that working for you?*'
* Medb is quoting Dr. Phil since she watches his show when she is bored, which explains some of her disgust with humanity... thank God she can't get The Jerry Springer Show on the Alfar equivalent of Roku.
Cheers!!
Not only would it explain it. It would justify all the hate.
Yeah, if that's the human standard I may join the Elf's. (I might anyway after what happened to Finn...)
Kari certainly doesn't have a bad relationship with the Templars, but there does seem to be a certain distance to it. Note how quickly Linnae tells the MC to stop pestering Kari despite the brevity of the conversation and the fact Kari was quite engaged in it. It definitely gives me the vibe that Kari and the Templars are co-belligerents more than they are proper allies.
Indeed, and I certainly don't mean to imply Kaija has some universal right to berate the MC, much less to throw shade on your own experience. I don't blame you for distrusting her after the whole Templar thing came out, and Kaija has no cause to scold the MC if he told her he needed space from her and his parents; at best she should politely suggest he took an unnecessarily large risk.
He'd been there 3 weeks though (so ok..less Earth time)...can't see that being the reason.
Certainly possible.I've cracked it. I'm waiting for the Eagle and the Assassins to roll up. They serve the light by being hidden in the shadows or words to that effect. It's been a while since I played Assassins Creed. The Assassins are starting a war with the elves to exterminate them and save humanity. What do you think?
Never said it didn't....only that we didn't see it....
a good one, I think, anyway they aren't acting alone for all matters.
I agree with that take for the L path, just one tiny observation, the Àlfar, did not declare a war, they are just hostile and feel threated by Humans, presence in Neverwhere, which is the hub to other worlds.
That's kinda implicit in kidnapping someone's top general and demanding they dismantle their defensive forces for his return though.
And how come no one talked about attempted MCs kidnapping?
Medb specifically says the MC needs to leave Alfheim the following morning because the Alfar are going to declare war on the Templars and he'll become a prisoner if he stays any longer. I take that to mean that by the time the MC sees Kaija again the war will be on. (Though I'm still unclear what 'war' between these two sides means in a practical sense.)
Oh that, I didn't register that line, thank's for the heads up !
well they easily can have open conflict in neverwhere, nobody gives a shit. On elvish hometurf they will clearly have an advantage, so it's unlikely the templars would attempt that. Same in reverse, if they want to stir shit up in our world, that would probably mean dealing not just with templars but human authorities as well (Medb explained why this is a really bad idea)
you have a point thereIs that...even a question at this point?
A very good chance, I have wondered the same thing.
Definitely a good point. I asked myself the same question. The MC has a lot going on, but I'd certainly be looking for answers after my chat with Medb. Whoever is pulling the strings is using Elf/Templar hostility to cover their actions. Is the MC a target still? Was it just to add fuel to fire because his father was kidnapped? Lots o questions to answer.
Yes the Templar's are stupid. Next. Joking.
