Wait, aren’t keepers ought to be politically neutral? There is an option to be politically neutral if you believe that you should neither be too pro-human or too pro-supernatural. Aren’t we supposed to be a bridge between both the humans and the supernaturals?

I went for the sword act, sounds like it’ll be somewhat fiscally concerning because of its budget, but it’s provisions should pay for themselves over the next couple years and the savior act is basically a walking civil liberties violation

Idk honestly I might have them backwards

Neither law is really evil, per se, savior is intended to crack down on unsanctioned/unlicensed hunters like the ones that can kill you/let you join them in sun and moon, at the cost of possible civil liberty violations and invasion of privacy, primarily against humans. Meanwhile, sword is more of an appropriations bill that will invest in ward networks and the companies that make them, hopefully creating more jobs and helping on the defense front at the cost of possible deficit and future fiscal issues and almost no investment in proactive attacks against unsanctioned hunters, although I’m only extrapolating on that first one
Both laws have inter-factual support, so it’s not as simple a the Nephilim supporting one in the opposition supporting another.
Most of the major characters, however, generally oppose savior and the parents support sword, as they helped in drafting it, and it’s kind of obvious which one you’re pushed into backing by the people around you

Honestly, the whole politics situation really caught me off guard lol I think that was one of the times where I truly could like identify with the MC, being a authoritive figure that clearly is too inexperienced to make the most sensible calls without angering every supernatural in existence lol
Honestly the whole time I was like " bruh idk care about this shi can i go back to punch dragons and get good grades?" lol

Lol I was the same and ignored it despite npcs bringing it up. Honestly it’s not like it mattered anyway now Frostbite threatens everyone globally.

True none of are truely evil. The hunters were the main issue but the humans feel threaten by the supernatural as well. U can’t get a good ending no matter what u choose,

I support the jobs creation one. Common sense prevails over Nephilim anti human policies. Sure, the act is supported by Demons, who actually care about humans, while Angels are the complete fricking opposite. Which seems odd… Then again, 99% of the angels are egotisitical narcisists…

I actually would rather support the savior act, I just think it goes too far, but the concept, I agree with 100%. And as mentioned above, the acts are not split clearly amongst Pardison lines,. Monroe, of the Nephilim’s, opposes savior on principle but gets blackmailed into it, for example. Moreno has his own faction that supports the savior act while other Cambian’s are pro sword

Between Patil and Colesia ,who should I reveal ? Why I think Patil quite sly more than Colesia haha we always can kill Colesia.but Patil beside support and reveal him .I don’t see way to get rip him off politic game.

I hope in book 3 we will can get rip all secretaries and take over NMC ourselves.

For player who play demo ,Do you think It is possible?

Probably Patil. He’s got some influence but I don’t think exposing him would put the MC in the same level of political peril as exposing Celosia. Also doesn’t help that one of the MC’s suitemates is a nymph, so exposing Celosia could have unintended consequences for her, if that’s something you care about.

Don’t think we’re gonna get to kill all of them, but I do think it’s very possible that the MC becomes a driving political fore in NMC at the end of B3 should they choose to.
