@krakencube51@TretchofRictus@DevotionOath You make a good point. Especially with the Nord’s history of retaliatory genocide. They’re too nuanced (to me) to consider them good. But they are rebels fighting for their people. I’d put them on the same level as the Stormcloaks. (The people, not their leadership)
@krakencube51@TretchofRictus@DevotionOath Is a government that conquers and punishes those who practice the very things they do behind closed doors. The Foresworn are oppressed people embracing indiscreet bloodlust out of spite for their ancestors.
@krakencube51@TretchofRictus@DevotionOath You can feel bad for the forsworn without saying they’re fighting the good fight lol. That’s what’s I mean when say “empires and war.” This is the situation the game puts us in. Ulfric is an evil man hiding behind a good cause. The Empire-
@krakencube51@TretchofRictus@DevotionOath Sure, not all the foresworn tribes were bloodthirsty, and Ulfric is a massacring tyrant, but such is the nature of war and empires. Reachmen slaughter and conquer in response to their own subjugation, and the cycle continues in turn
@krakencube51@TretchofRictus@DevotionOath Not to mention the ancient pact with the Hagravens denotes some serious deadric influence. The forsworn are a return to their old ways, but the reachfolk never abandoned their roots, even during Madonachs rule OR the Longhouse Emperors. They’ve always been an opposing faction
@krakencube51@TretchofRictus@DevotionOath Not an Ulfric apologist, don’t get me wrong, but the Reachfolk have a deep history of deadra worship and ritual sacrifice that doesn’t exactly venerate them. Sure, the short-lived Markarth Reach Kingdom had stability but they weren’t morally superior to the Empire or its tactics
It seems @DragonCon is cool with giving its seal of approval on 100% AI generated artwork for their TMNT menu? Peep the pizza graphic on the left. PIZZA ISNT EVEN ON THE MENU aside from a flatbread appetizer. Baffling #dragoncon2026

This hurts me so much. My heart breaks once again.
May you Rest In Peace, Kaylee.
Thank you for your time and inspiring many people in the deaf community. You will be missed.
