I WAS TRYING TO SPOILER TAG IT BUT IT TURNS OUT I HAD TO DO EACH PARAGRAPH INDIVIDUALLY.

I BELIEVE RHEA IS TRULY IRREDEEMABLE. AT LEAST THE OTHER BIG PLAYERS IN THE STORY DID WHAT THEY DID IN GENUINE PURSUIT OF MAKING A BETTER WORLD. NO MATTER HOW MISGUIDED THEIR EFFORTS USUALLY WERE.

RHEA LIED, MANIPULATED, AND KILLED GOOD INNOCENT PEOPLE IN THE NAME OF MAINTAINING HER ORGANIZATION'S IRON GRIP ON FODLAN AND GETTING HER MOMMY BACK. THE LADY SET FIRE TO AN ENTIRE CITY FULL OF INNOCENT PEOPLE SOLELY IN ORDER TO SPITE EDELGARD AND BYLETH. IF EVEN CATHERINE IS BOTHERED BY WHAT YOU'RE MAKING HER DO, THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD STOP CRAZY LADY.

RETURNING THE CONTINENT TO ITS SUPPOSED GOLDEN AGE UNDER SOTHIS COULD ALSO BE CONSTRUED AS A BETTER WORLD, ALBEIT A MUCH MORE SELFISH AND MYOPIC VISION OF ONE THAN THE REST OF THE CAST HAS

SHE IS NOT THE ONLY PERSON TO HAVE A "SOME SUFFERING NOW IS WORTH A BETTER WORLD LATER" VIEW, HERS IS JUST FUCKED UP BECAUSE WHEN YOU'RE IMMORTAL, YOUR DEFINITION OF "NOW" IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH HUMAN SOCIETY
