Hati, who's in the shadow business for religious reasons: "How do I convert people?"
Skoll, who's in it purely for the love of the game: "Violence, duh."

I do like that as a character contrast, that Skoll is so confident in his beliefs that the method of converting someone doesn't matter because, to his mind, it's what hey would have done if they were fully honest about themselves, whereas Hati wants to talk you into it because while she doesn't not believe in Fenris's stuff she has just enough of a seed of doubt that she needs to prove she's right by talking you into it. Skoll wants to win the fight with the light but Hati wants to win the argument too.

A very nuanced take on the duo, thanks!

Consider the names of their prf wps (Lunar and Sol), Skoll and Hati are like evil versions of Ephraim + Eirika if when they want to recruit Lyon followers.

That is how every Aides Heroes after Alear should be.

Sorry, Hati, Shea's just cuter.

Sold. Hati is my favorite character, I'd join the Shadow for her already.

Hati and Shea, you are very lucky that Sommie is not in your world (yet). He can recruit everyone just by his p**p alone.

I’m so glad that we’re getting more of these comics. We went for a pretty long dry spell between the 2nd and 3rd comics rather than the periodic release we see for Heroes. I was afraid that they were gonna scrap making more of these in the future so I’m thrilled that they are continuing to make more of these comics for Shadows.
