Pou Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Levin is much more interesting than Athos who is just a Merlin/Grand Wizard construct. Levin is a being who fucks up repeatedly despite being magical. At some point the gods get so fed up by his bungling they possess him. Yet even once he becomes a "Athos" character (we have to remember that Athos from 3 Musketeers himself wasn't perfect) a failure he goes through is his loss of human angle. I won't go through a crusade to rescue the FE4 plot but the ambiguity is the best part. The brutality of every lord not in the "good guys" (Thracia is given an excuse) is how medieval life was. Was Sigurd's father a perfect patriot or a politician? Not enough has been clarified apart from Sigurd's view that could well be biased. The fact everything is going left while the "good guys are winning" shows how strong a drug glorification is. Besides glory Sigurd's white knighting is an escape from social slavery something that Levin openly pursues. The backdrop of Judgral is common extortion, mercenary work, brothers hating, wiping out dynasties and raids that makes the ridiculousness what Malfoy is doing very easy to fit in. Levin isn't the hero we elected but the hero that Judgral deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
