Aodhan: Why are you here Mercenary... Mercenary: To listen to this cool song Aodhan: So why are you crying Mercenary: **BECAUSE I HAVE TO KILL YOU TO HEAR IT!**

[@triv4555]

Oh Aodhan, your music is amazing, but why...😭

[@silverexperience]

It's ok, at least his soundtrack gave him a justifiable death

[@cheemborg1301]

They did him justice with this

if it was me trying to reason with him, i would just say: "So, you`re actually willing to die because we are allying ourselves with the species that killed your family? You do realize that the specific fomors who killed your family is probably long dead already, right? Wich means your revenge has been served already. All that is left now is you trying to blame all other fomors for your family`s death. That is not only stupid but incredibly racist." I think he would`ve felt pretty stupid pushing his agenda fighting his own people after that.

Logic doesn't defeat a emotional response, If a Jew killed Hitlers entire family, then he became racist, then the world shall know pain. lol

I feel like the actual crux of the issue is that this ignores the actual issue. That Aodhan was still grieving deeply for his family, and his means of expressing that grief was lashing out at the category of people he viewed responsible for it. And that he's been doing just that for years. So the prospect of peace with the Fomors would mean admitting that he was a monster for killing all those years when war could've been stopped and untold suffering averted (bear in mind that the prophecy the ruling humans had was that they needed to wipe out ALL Fomors for their goddess' return). He already knew that the player character is *right.* He knew that his prejudice was stupid and wrong. It's why his dying breath is basically rooting for the player character. More than anything though, he seemed to want to reunite with his family.

​​@@Revenante_of_Asylum Yeah I agree. In his mind, he knew it was wrong, but his couldn't keep his emotions in check anymore so he sought release.

[@Alyrael]

@@Revenante_of_Asylum He basically performed suicide by hero, it was either that or he prolongs the war, which I don't think he actually wanted either. You can only fight for so long before growing tired, which I'm sure he was.

[@Thatoneassclown]

So I'm listening to Vindi music for nostalgia cause I ain't played the game in years and I did a spittake when I saw this one... They really made us kill our man Aodhan, that's fucked up

[@XonixDerps]

If I recall, given another time reset Aodhan was made to remember his families deaths etc prior to us working with fomors. Mans cant accept that and so we are asked to meet him ( basically set up for the duel)? Either way, its more fucked when you find the story set piece I believe KR had made about him and Lann? Mans basically raises the boy after he joins the mercs and Lann is the one who meets him I think is how it went
