Not only do you make great points, but you’re also right in that this whole thing was so, so sudden, so much so it puts AwakeningFates to shame. When he started going on about it I thought we’d at least see the Emblem, a silhouette, SOMETHING but of course not. That’s for DLC, I suppose.

Honestly, a great story beat/subplot that could’ve been intertwined with the whole long lost siblings/abusive dad/Zephia’s baby fever would’ve been to have Sombron abuse this lone wolf but still kind Emblem. It couldn’t speak, but it was powerful enough to wander off on its own, it still cared about him if we look at the subtext of friendship and how it left only when he was safe (WHILE being red no less, which means he’s born a royal fell dragon now that I reflect on this-so he’s a fell dragon Medeus? A prince?), and it crossed worlds no problem.

As you said, this Emblem breaks all the rules, so imagine if the story added a few scenes here and there where Sombron finds it (this is AwakeningFates esque-“my Emblem disappeared and is literally nowhere to be found but not it is for plot reasons!” But hey, the payoff will be worth it, I can suspend my disbelief a bit lol) and enslaves it for power, abusing its care, foiling him to the heroes. He treats it not as a father/mother figure that he let in and let it protect him, but rather as an extension of his revenge plot, not seeing the blessings he had/has, which stemmed from this Emblem’s kindness in the first place. So now, he not only uses his children for his own gain and doesn’t foster a good family to generate the love and safety he denied himself, but now there’s an extra layer of eventually shutting out and abusing one of the first friends he had in this world. Like a tragic ouroboros. Maybe he even talks to it with an affection he doesn’t give Veyle-he still abuses its power, but this is just what love is to him. Control, abuse, being a means to an end for another, and since he has actual affection for this Emblem, it’s still super twisted despite humanizing him.

But nah, let’s just tack it on for DLC. I admit I’m not averse to DLC as some parts of some games just can’t be developed until after they generate the mulah or just need more resources they didn’t have during development-so if this is a springboard to that, I’ll take it. But I do wish that developers/writers would MAYBE try their best to squeeze this stuff in, for that extra writing oomph. I can’t say if they didn’t or not, but considering how this is dumped into the last hour of the game…they probably knew that this plot point was for Extra content. Luckily for me, YT exists, and FeTube exists, so I don’t have to spend a dime.

(Apologies for the wall of text. TLDR; I agree. What the hell were they thinking. I don’t want to wait until DLC waves to get the full story :/)
