Listen to him talk like that and you know he's gonna do whatever it takes to realise his vision. No risk of him losin' his spine and bending to someone else's will. Seemed like a sort of saviour to people like us, even if he was exactly the opposite for others.

Though honestly, that was just another sellin' point to me at the start. The idea of clemar nobles like that feeling the same despair as the tribes they walked all over... that felt like justice.
[ yeah, it probably did. it's always the fantasy, isn't it? that someone who holds so much power will finally, finally hear the way you've been treated and is willing to take a stand for you. That you've convinced them of the wrong they've done and they will want to right it.
It makes the inevitable fact they are never doing it for you hurt all the more. ]
The worst kind of bastard. One who would use justice for his own gain rather than seek it for those who truly deserve it.
Don't even know what it is he'd be gaining from it in the end if he's really planning to let the whole place be overrun by humans.
[ he still really can't wrap his head around what the hell louis has actually been thinking all this time... and it does hurt, knowing how wrong he was about someone he'd respected so much. ]
...But yeah. Whatever his actual goal is, it's sure as hell not what all the people who threw their lives away for his cause thought they were dyin' for.
