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

[Dragonstrike]

I'll just say this on the subject: Orthros CAN become a friendly entity in Ven's eyes, but its going to take a loooooong time (Years) and/or extraordinary effort to accomplish that, so the easier path is just have Ven learn to bottle up/hide his animosity towards them. Keep in mind that he has legitimate fears not to trust them, and he's not got the highest faith in Nathan's ability right now, so the best way to get him to better tolerate them is somehow to get Shiva to force the issue.

If it becomes an issue, then Raphael gets traded away. Simple, easy, done. I'll miss them, and Ven will be devastated by this, but its in both our best interest to learn and let go in that probably instance...

I'm just trying to keep options open instead of sticking to one, rigid path with no real solution at the end of it.

It's easy for Ventus, maybe, but that might not necessarily be the best thing for Raphael's happiness.  And as far as Nathan is concerned...well, that wouldn't be pretty to see.
