[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Lord Windos]

True, it seems like Nathan will have to deal with Ventus alone the since I'll have Shiva follow her own business again after a short meeting up with him.

Gifts are incredibly nice for an apology, but...uhm... I'd find it unfair/wrong to be soft-rewarded with something that one would likely not get otherwise for messing up/arguing with Ventus, what actually does not contribute that much to the game and story. It's fine, don't get me wrong and take this as objecting from me (it's not), but it should not become the standard especially since Ven and Nathan will certainly get into more fights in the future for whatever reasons, and a reward feels somewhat better if it is for being helpful/supportive/contributing.

I agree to an extent, but it well established that Ventus is , while not a prolific gift giver, tries his best to share what little wealth and resources he has with the others, regardless of the situation. I probably would have traded Kanghushkan for a valuable item for either Nathan or Shiva regardless of the conflict, in order to get the great amount of value out of it (the Mama). The recent disaster between our character just influenced to get a item for Nathan, ultimately. Besides, I tried to see if Kang could be traded for items/things that you and Dragonstrike would like by discussing it with Iron, but the deal didn't pan out so well with you (Phantom, dear~) in mind, and since Ven had been treating Nathan like shit lately...

On the bright side, Shiva now has his extra Hard Stone AND several more useful healing items for her battle that she wouldn't likely have received otherwise unless she asked/begged for them because of this huge conflicting mess, so in a way you are benefiting from it as well. Maybe not in the same way as Dragonstrike, mind you, but getting an edge against Zamboni in battle is roughly equal to what Nate is going to get, and even more so if Shiva wins on her first go!
