I've been writing revisions to the characters for awhile -- if you didn't notice through my posts. The Phoenix is an especially tricky one to approach because the "just kill him" option is tough to handle without acknowledging all kinds of reverberations of his death. My strategy was to play on slowly pressing for reforms by, simply put, traumatizing the populace through externally imposed crises and increasing exposure to the outside world. We're not talking an overturning of the status quo - rather, maybe fanatical women could end up battle maiden in service of Okran. Maybe the HN revises some of the techno-militaristic limitations and embraces advancements in equipment so their boys stop coming back amputees. And just maybe someone can figure out the answer to the existential question of:
>Why the fuck are we still fighting in Bast?
Tengu is one of the neatly positioned characters where the more there is to him, the easier it is to rub off the depth onto other characters. That's sort of what they already did with Longen and Yamdu. Their dialogue lines create a rather large web of interconnected context to why the world is moving in the direction is it (not necessarily how it got there, the past is left murky). We're given a totally different perspective on the Shek Kingdom by Yamdu alone outlining the empire (read: TG, another layer of nuance) are on the hunt for a cutthroat to cut the queen's throat. The busywork of the imperials lays the groundwork for all kinds of subterfuge, sowing dissent and dirty deeds done for devious reasons. I'm guessing you've happened upon one of my musings about Moll being a rather obvious agent for anyone with eyes to see. Nat wanted that girl to be important and I agree, she should admit she's an ex-Jonin Elite up to some serious no good pretending to be something she is definitely not: a caring individual. Behind those golden eyes are LIES!
