You know, I was kinda robbed of a Halsin and Minthara surface enemies to tentative alliance under the player character arc, and that the two of them will likely never see fully eye to eye on anything, and primarily seem like complete opposites of one another, but fundamentally they are both born of tragedy and shaped by a robbery of agency and loss, and their similarities ghost begrudgingly in and out even as their differences scream the loudest - Son of the Sun and Daughter of Darkness and all that.

And they both think Baldur's Gate is the pits so they could have just been mad about that together.

#neutral good and neutral evil alliance my beloved #BG3 Musing #i am thinking about that one line of minthara at the portal that is buried in the data files - a whisper of something that could have been #i get why it isn't HOWEVER #i was talking to ken about this the other day and tbh i keep thinking about it #two local hermits hate the city #also this is grossly simplified i know and the chances are maybe they would have just been at each other's throats #and tbh i don't trust larian's writing team - they drop the ball a lot in these sorts of scenarios #EDIT: As evidenced by recent data mining #HOWEVER COMMA....i can dream of actually good complexity that doesn't deface either character
