It is far too easy to accidentally trigger the conversation where Shadowheart admits to wanting to sleep with Halsin the whole time. I'm trying to figure out if there is some lesson to be taught, because through the whole game, the lesson of tolerance is conveyed through the writing. And I can appreciate that, tolerance is a worthy objective to teach, especially in this day and age. In this case however, I don't think that was the point. This idiot of a writer was just trying to "push the envelope" so to speak.

Let me tell you how this plays out in the REAL world. If someone who you THOUGHT was a friend your whole time tells you he wants to bang your girl out of the blue, he earns an immediate ass whooping. If your girl expresses displeasure when you refuse, you break up with her, on the spot. And if, God forbid, you were married, you might trigger an even worse response than that. There is a reason why people are able to successfully plea temporary insanity in the cases of murder due to adultery. Hell, this is "just a game," and I STILL probably wouldn't hesitate to put a bat through your writer's skull and make him look like a mindflayer's lunch.

You do not tangle with people's emotions in a relationship, genius. There is no message of "tolerance" to be conveyed here. Get a writer who understands relationships.
