While the betrayal if you pick orpheus is a bit extreme, it also makes sense? Not to us, but to the emperor
He is was up himself and believes his plan and ONLY his plan will work. It's a mind flayer thing too, he's smarter than you how can YOU be right?
orpheus can forgive us sure, but the emperor has been keeping him prisoner and has the plan of, I'll eat him and absorb his power,

so if you free Orpheus, not only in his mind, is the absolute going to win so defecting now means he'll lose autonomy but get to live, but orpheus will definitely kill him
Like it's a wrong decision but it is the one the emperor would take because he's like that?

Minthara is the best character and she NEEDS to be recruitable if you side with the grove!
Also- I support the important thread in the suggestions: Let everyone in the Party Speak
