#|| The Bhaalspawn had a test mission with Gortash and Gortash ''did miss this'' when he literally plays is fucked up mind games.

You should kill them before they end up killing you. Be careful Gortash

"They are my ally. I will not kill them. And while your concern for my well-being is appreciated, I do not require it. With this in mind. Get out."

#Nonnie #Nonnie ask answered #|| Let's consider why Banites don't really kill - only if they don't have any other choice. #|| Ruling over others is much more useful for them. They're tyrants after all. Using assets to reach their goals is beneficial for them. #|| A dead person is not useful. #|| ...unless they prove to be a weak ally - in which case they're not useful so they're better off dead (us if we hand over the stones). #|| Or when they're just pawns and they've served their purpose (patriars). #|| Gortash's dynamic with the Bhaalspawn is full of mind games and tests. From both sides. #|| The Bhaalspawn had a test mission with Gortash and Gortash ''did miss this'' when he literally plays is fucked up mind games. #|| (He plays mind games with Tav too - demanding the stones and wanting them to refuse him. TWICE.) #|| ...I'd like to mention that I really found it interesting that despite the fact that as Tav we'd serve our purpose- #|| -in getting the stones - he doesn't WANT Tav and their group to be in the Accelerated Grand Design. #|| In one of his books in his office he recorded that he plans to find a place for us in his ''Golden Reign of Gortash''. #|| He wanted to keep Tav on his good side. As a strong ally who tells him no occasionally. A strong ally who rules with him. #|| He'd surely control them - but not completely. #|| ...just as he wanted to keep the Bhaalspawn alive and on his side. #|| Sigh. I have so many thoughts and feelings. 😩
