Then suddenly your guardian show up. By "definition" a guardian is someone that looks out for your well being. This guardian wants you to embrace the slimy little worms.
WTF!!!! (in the voice of this new player) How am I supposed to handle this. The narrative is pulling me in different directions all the time.
Now I have full faith in Larian here to have some 5d chess masterpiece level writing for the game. But the term "guardian" is definitely an interesting name to say the least for someone who pushes you to embrace everything that any ounce of sense in you flags as wrong. Now this guardian also promises to protect you which does make me wonder. The most obvious suspicion here has to be that the guardian is almost certainly a fake persona. Someone is pretending to be the person of your dreams with information likely extracted from your mind...in your dreams. But the big questions are who and to what end? It could be Orin the shapeshifter, though dreams aren't really her domain as Orin is almost certainly related to Bhaal in some capacity. But I actually suspect it might be Shar...it is her artifact that protects us from being mind controlled and it is likely through that artifact that she has access to our minds. And she might not be lying about protecting us but Shar is still evil so if we ally with her we may still be headed for an evil ending. But I am incredibly excited to find out how Larian have crafted this amazing game.
