Why are you insisting, that we like Astarion? So, no, if that character is Astarion, then I have zero interest in his importance in the story. And now please don't ask again. I hope, that was clear?
First of all do not accuse me of something that I am not doing. I'm not insisting on anything. If you just don't want to have a discussion, that's fine. If you don't like Astarion that is your prerogative but don't be so dismissive when someone is asking to know more. That's the point of a discussion.
