Anyway, I'm just like rambling blah blah blah. They could certainly craft a story whereby the Garelans become the heroes, but I don't really think the direction its gone so far is a case of that. What they've done is set up a very dramatic and very believable situation based on political and cultural conflict in their most interesting city-state. I really had my doubts about their story writing, but I'm really impressed by this last patch
"May you live in interesting times" never felt so relevant to an MMO.
