139) Story: Source Hunters take the word of an admitted liar as literal truth.
This is kind-of a continuation of complaint #16 - "Source Hunters are written as stupid".
I am speaking specifically here about Zombie Jake. The Source Hunters finally find Jake. If they talked to all the witnesses in the tavern, the player might have noticed that Jake's story is inconsistent with them. The Source Hunters don't notice that. That is okay, because there isn't really a way to put that together without an obvious dialogue option.
However, later on, after hearing Councilor Jake's story about who killed him, you encounter him again under the old church. It is revealed that he is a Sourcerer, and he was in league with Evelyn. And yet, not once, not even ONCE do the Source Hunters ever doubt that maybe, just MAYBE, his tale about who killed him was a bunch of hokum. Nonsense. Garbage. Lies.
The source hunters seem to ignore all the testimony of people who say that the White Witch seems like a good person. They seem to ignore the fact that the Immaculates are after her. They know the Immaculates are suspicious - even if they miss Arhu in Silverglen, they at least meet a fleeing Immaculate who says "holy crap we're bad guys, I'm outa here".
Every time they talk to an ally of the White Witch, they seem to single-mindedly say "The White Witch is clearly evil and a murdereress and should be brought to justice." Seriously? The case against Esmeralda was stronger than the case against the White Witch! I think some skepticism is in order here!
