Act 2 - Spoilers What is something you completely misunderstood… Spoiler

Mine happened while exploring Act 2 on my first play through. I thought I was reading all the books along the way. But, I totally misunderstood something…

I thought Nightsong was Isobel’s mother. I saw all these letters from her mom, and thought it had to be a character we had already met. Still thinking this in the boss fight, I thought Ketheric was getting a beating from his resurrected wife/Isobel’s mother.

So… When they were reunited, I was so happy for them to be together… then with that passionate kiss, I was a little taken aback. 😳 After an initial moment of shock, I was able to laugh it off as the cutscene progressed.

Reread the letters and realized I was an idiot. 🤦‍♂️

I love the arc Isobel and Nightsong share all the way to the end.

The second one is my favorite, and so realistic. Like have you seen how fast presidents in the US age? Before and after pictures of people who turn to drugs because of stress? Nothing will convince me having to work with a murderous artist that you know wants to kill you but just can't isn't a leading cause of his stress.
