>>269786656This is when Toei got hacked and the anime was put on hold btw
>>269787017HyunKEK
>>269786987This poor fortress is getting vandalized by the hero party and Vearn doesn't even care...
>>269787162
>>269787188Why don't YOU do something besides bitching at other people
>>269787359>>269787382MY FUARKING HERO
>>269787725MY.FUCKING.HERO.
>>269786651Why is he in the cover?
>>269787755He has a lot of flashback sequences this chapter
>>269787725FUCK your spells, I can block flames with my bare hands!
>>269786741She's out fucking classed.
>>269787781Cool. I don't know if I can swallow some bullshit like him actually still alive.
>>269787137>with our two strongest spell casters inside the trapI thought Dai isn't that good with spells and Lon Berk made him that scabbard to compensate?
>>269787162>>269787221Kek, too bad we only got this panel this far into the game.
>>269787991Poppbros... not like this...
>>269787725OH SHIT
>>269788020He can't be dead. I don't believe it.
>>269788188I love that last panel. It is so easy to forget Piroro is every bit as evil as Kill.
>>269788251My…hero…
>>269788251Is this gay?
>>269788286If it is, then I don't want to be straight.
>>269788286It's GAR!
>>269788344Ah, now there's a word I've not heard in years.
>>269788397>HE PRAYSLegendary character
>>269788397>>269788423Damn.
Still not too sure how i feel about this reveal, but at least he does get great scenes. My headcanon is that God answered Hadlar’s plead as this is the first time a demon prayed and rewrote history.
>>269788454>>269788486>>269788520>>269788551MOTHERFUCKINGREENTER
>>269788551ANON LIED TO ME! WHAT THE FUCK?!
I lied btw, wanted to help newfriends not get spoiled by the cover.>>269788551REFUCKINGENTER
>>269788551>hadlar prayed to god>avan reentereither this is the human god piloting his dead body or avan IS the human god
>>269788585;)
>>269788618This is the first time KillVearn looks shocked, right? I don't think he's this surprised when Baran cut him in half.
>>269788690Yeah, he was maybe surprised but then looks more annoyed than anything. He practically loses his shit in the anime lol
>>269788757>>269788783>>269788805>>269788826BASED BASED BASED BASED BASED
>>269788805>>269788826GET FUCKED, FUCKING CLOWN
>>269788585Would someone do that? Go on the internet and lie?
>>269788940Kino.
>>269788940Exit... CHADlar, my HERO.
>>269788940>>269789008EXIT ;-;
>>269788520Wait a second, how did he put those feathers for the star sigil inside the ultra-hot spell? Hyunkel tried throwing a knife and it got evaporated instantly.
>>269789075oh so that's why Mr.Shinigami was unable to dodge Hadlar's atttack
>>269788551Ah yes the moment when this manga takes a turn from "Defining Legend" to "Ok".And the Deus Ex Machinas are just starting. Seriously fuck this development and fuck what follows
>>269789108Magic feathers, I ain't gotta explain shit
>>269789108The turn to Bullshit is just starting anon, and nobody can stop it.
>>269789146>>269789165Now that I think about it, what's preventing Hyunkel and Maam to just straight up run into the spell since they are wearing anti-magic armor?
>>269789149>even HUNKel can't stop the stream
>>269789281>leave me alone, I'm too cool for this
>>269789185anti magic metal is still heated up by magical flame, like how hyunckel old armor still conducted magical electric
>>269789306How the fuck does the translator not get it? Is he autistic? Don't answer that.
>>269789353>Well, this kid used an onion fairy to rewrite the timeline and- wait, not wrong manga
>>269789137I respectfully disagree but I get why you feel that way.
>>269789185Flame of makai is made different. Not magic spell probably. Kill-vearn used summon spell.And Avan erased summon spell with magic feathers.
>>269789426That's convenient.
>>269789486Your fucking growth. Can't have mother chicken look after you forever.
>>269788551MY HERO
>>269789521growth my ass, he taught dai for less than half a week, literally
>>269789185It's natural flame, not something made by magic.
>>269789599At least he got the basics. Well, some of the basics.
>>269789609>>269789639hyunckel just straight booked it is so fucking funny for some reason
Soala, Leira or Steenue?
Kill getting btfo is so satisfying.
>>269789878The thought of Avan plucking that birdman from Baran's team for the feathers just cracked me up.
>>269789978just imagine baran came back to check on his underlings and avan was just there looting the bodies
>>269789467A fuckton of things are about to become convenient.
>>269790013Wonder if he also looks like a bishonen
>>269790042>>269790129>>269790094Why not kill him then and there?
>>269790117Well, that's quite convenient.
>>269790145Muh honor
>>269788551This is bullshit
>>269790163You havent seen anything
>>269790220What, levelgrinding?
>>269790216...how much more bullshit can this manga insert at this point? I've never seen/read this manga until this storytime, but it feels like this manga is like 3/4 over...right?
>>269790345>>269790367What about fucking Leona? At least Avan got experience under his belt.
>>2697903711/4 of a fairly long run sounds like plenty of time to pack in crazy amounts of BS to me
>>269790790>OH NOOOO SOME NAMELESS JOBBERS WHAT WILL HYUNKEL DO!?!?!!?
>>269786836Oh yeah. Everyone meme'd Pop was holding this trap up for like what 2-3 weeks?
>>269790725>he has a strange relationship with chiuwhat did they mean by this?
>>269790790ENTERMY HEROES
>>269790983Chiu realized his chance with Maam is nil.
>>269790953I think it was more like a month, it was some seriously fucked up timing.
>>269791047>>269791075>>269791098>>269791125>>269791143>>269791155
>>269791295But Minakatoru needs 5 people with specific kind of heart/soul/whatever. That ought to be a high multiplier for a spell.
>>269791318Kek, he wasn't joking about shaving.
>>269791213Yeah, as far as shonen asspulls go, it's far from the most elegant. Still, it's offset by CHADlar's magnificent sendoff.
>>269791318Imagine the smell.
Done for todayCome back tomorrow to see Hyunckel fight the Jobber Army
>>269791614Thanks OP. Avan’s return is always going to be controversial, but i can accept it all things considered due to how many good interactions we end up with.
>>269791614Thanks OP. Popp can't even shot more than once in a day...
>>269791614Thanks as always. Peak fiction has passed but we still have the climax and a grand finale coming up. Been really enjoying this storytime!
It is kinda crazy when you think how big the time gap between the six generals actually is. Flazzard dies fairly quickly, then the next death is Baran like four arcs later.
Fuck it, blogpost time. Call me a faggot, I don't care.I watched the original Dai anime when I was a kid, and Avan's death impacted me deeply when I witnessed it. I'm not sure that it was the first time I saw a major likable character heroically sacrifice himself to protect those he cares about (in fact, it most likely wasn't, not even in anime), but the way it was executed really impressed me. Not even kidding, I would think about it every once in a while for close to twenty years.That is, until I decided to read the manga around 2013 or so, and man what a fucking trip that was when I got to this point. I didn't care that it was an asspull or whatever, and let's be fair, it was. Even so, I felt exactly what Dai and the other disciples felt at that moment, that joyous feeling of reuniting with a loved one that you believed to be gone, except for me it had been close to two decades rather than a few months.A few years ago, I got to share that with my older brother, who also watched the show back then, though it was through the new anime. He actually started crying, and thanked me for sharing that moment with him.That's why, asspull aside, I'm ok with his return, along with the fact that it made for the best possible wrap-up for Hadlar's arc. I know others feel differently for various reasons, but this is just my perspective.
>>269789426She saved your ass, you better get busy and give her at least 5 kids.
>>269791927Good shit bro. I feel that got to watch 2020 with my brother and it made us feel like kids again we were completely hooked.
>>269790145 For the ending to work
>>269791927Thanks for sharing, bloganon.
>>269790661HUNK
>>269791016>>269790990Avan was Wow maxing his stats by Gigagrinding like a no life hobo for months.Based.
>>269790725Damn i am older than gomess now
>>269791927I read Avan vs Kill-vearn when I was 12yo. It's so nostalgic.And I came up with this logic >>269789438 by re-reading NOW.I dIdn't know OP is my countryman lol.
>>269791927For those who call it bullshit, look back at the part where Hadlar tried to burn Dai and Popp to death. A good writer understands that there's more to good writing than simply going with the flow and this is a miracle that took so much of humanity's power to happen. Flora refused to give up, Avan fought to the end, Dai and Popp made it this far and even Hadlar had to change. This is one of the best damned closures and Hadlar's story couldn't have come to a proper close without it.
>>269791143Imagine the smell, did he take a shower before coming?
>>269791125How did he find out about Vearn????
>>269792263Man I didn't even connect the call back to that. Good shit
>>269792346Hadlar told him back then he had been resuscitated by Vearn and that he was now commander of his army.
I wonder if Hadlar will be reborn. A sequel taking place in the underworld would be neat.
>>269792263>For those who call it bullshit, look back at the part where Hadlar tried to burn Dai and Popp to death.OH SHIT THAT'S RIGHTSanjo, I fucking kneel.
>>269792263>Hadlar tried to burn Dai and Pop to deathHuh?
>>269792376>>269792470Glad to have helped! Hadlar's development happened because of the manga's extension so this is simply a kino bookend for him that plays off what was already shown in the past. You might notice too that Avan insinuated that Hadlar was like a pawn - who's the piece most like him?
>>269792569ANON PLSI CAN'T TAKE ALL THIS KINO
>>269792562Remember how Avan encased Dai, Popp and Brass and Hadlar was going to use his flame to burn them to ashes? Yeah, the entire fire trap scene is a direct call back to this.>>269792618You want one more? Leona said a long time back that it's good to talk about your feelings back when Maam left and this bites back hard at Popp...because he did not. It's just cool seeing what a good mangaka remembers about the he material he wrote and incorporating it into the extended content.
do you think myst felt sad when hadlar died? they almost had something like a bromance going on
>>269792687Ah, right. Makes sense.
>>269792708Yeah, Myst is entirely loyal to the king, but he absolutely felt for Hadlar.
>>269793023Myst might be one of the most loyal right hands i have seen before, regardless of the media.
>>269788587>33Why is she drawn so old looking when she is only 33?Avan and flora aren't drawn that old looking.
>>269786741>trying to counter a Kill Vearn spell without being AT LEAST on Popp's levelLmao
>>269786841Even Vearn can tell Kill is a bit too cocky and assured of his win here.
That Avan is an imposter.The real CHADvan had a jawline that could diamond.
>>269789776Definitely maam's mom.
>>269793977In shonen, you've pretty much reached middle age by your 30's, and you're utterly ancient once you reach your 60's.
>>269791927It's an asspull but it is a well executed one.The thing with Avan is that even if he died early his influence and presence can be felt through the entire series afterwards and he's brought and mentioned tons of times. He never leaves the reader's mind.It carries a lot of emotional depth, and ultimately, Avan becomes a support and not a OP gary stu oneshotting everything and everyoneThere's more to things than "logical writing". Logic without emotion is pointless. It's a story meant for entertainment at the end of the day.
>>269788587Like I know mango logic has master swordsmen at 13 and head of world spaning corporations at 19.But fucking come on 33 isnt retirement age, I bet would much rather get busy with the locksmith, the stable boy, the carpenter, the tailor, the blacksmith and the mailman.Either that or she followed Aban´s example and took a sidetour to a dungeon that teleported her to the moon where she is secretly leveling up to lv 300 but is going to arrive just one day after the conflict is over.
>>269791403So if you're wondering why maam didn't become a dedicated support slut it is, because Avan became the dedicated buffer/debuffer.
>>269794384Leira getting turned into some generic NPC middle woman despite being one of Avan's companions is honestly one of the most baffling choices and decisions of this manga.It's even worse in hindsight after seeing how she was like through the Avan Manga.
>>269786719Hyadaruko?I fink this bloke meant crackle.>>269786741Hyado?I fink this bird meant crack.>>269786910Grand cross?I fink this bird meant pearly gates.>>269787064Riremito?I fink this bloke meant evac.>>269787561Ruura? Medoroa?I fink this bloke meant zoom and frizz cracker.>>269789377Megante?I fink this bloke meant kamikazee.>>269791403Toramana?I fink this bloke meant safe passage.>>269791422Abakamu?I fink this bloke meant click.
Was catching up and I had been waiting for that pose.
>>269794557Based comfy anon
>>269794557Nice
>>269786966>>269786987RIP Popp, Dai, and Hadlar.
>>269789108Hyunkel throw the knife to the Dragon Duel energy thingy. This is the Killvearn trap, two different things.
>>269792708Absolutely. Myst respects Hadlar for his single-minded pursuit of victory, just like Myst's devotion to Vearn.
>>269787096>Vearn: Meh. I can always make another
>>269786719just saying, crocodine could totally tunnel in and get all of them out, shouldn't have left him at home
>>269787359>>269787382Hadlar has awoken to HOPE
>>269795220Shit, I misremembered a lot of things lately.
>>269787644Hadlar? My hero.
>>269787725OUR CHAMPION
>>269791143Wait, it's been 3 months in universe?
>>269788551rip in pieces, it's all bullshit from now on. I guess japanese cannot into endings.
>Skim through Avan manga>Find the scene where Masopho is told about courage>The scene he alluded to all the way back in the Crocodine arc
>>269787991Why does Popp keep fucking dying.
>>269791143>>269796704yeah it doesn't make any sense, they managed to beat almost all commanders, had multiple fights with their armies, travelled all across multiple continent, and even wasted time on a tournament.3 months is just isn't enough for Popp to go from a weakling with no courage to a full on wise man throwing Medoras left and right.
>>269788188What an evil bastard.
>>269788251Our champion...
>>269797319The Avan manga is such an amazing prequel.
>>269788397>>269788423Hadlar and Popp have the greatest character development in this entire series.
>>269797405I mean, just this volume Vearn pointed out that Popp had a freakishly fast growth
>>269797405>3 months is just isn't enough for Popp to go from a weakling with no courage to a full on wise man throwing Medoras left and right.Look at post-timeskip Luffy, he went from Fishman Island just throwing out flaming red hawks to battling it out with Kaido in G5. With the battles Dai and co go through it's no wonder they grow like that.
>>269794311Exactly. Knowing how to reward your readers is just as important as making sure all your points line up and Sanjo is pretty great at doing both.
>>269797454matoriv casting his first medoroa is pure kino
>>269794311>There's more to things than "logical writing". Logic without emotion is pointlessJust look at Rational Fics
>>269794311Based literary mind. Emotion matters more than simple logic.
>>269799224It's not simply about emotion, Sanjo has repeatedly emphasized that strength, magic and heart are needed and likewise he doesn't just reward his characters because they wish for it. He knows how to create longing and yearning, using them as motivators and giving characters their just reward for fighting for it and that's one of his greatest strengths in my opinion.
>>269799423I was speaking generally. You should think about more than just "does it make sense" for any work. Of course, I wouldn't excuse Kengan Omega for its constant barrage of illogical garbage, I think there's a limit and "that manga" doesn't make up for it in emotion as it expected everyone to see Erioh's death as a "tragedy".
>>269787983Dai still has super strong spells. He could already use Iora to great effect against those dragons. He just isn't as adept as Popp is.
>>269799535Fair, there's a difference between this that was probably a trump card to be used in case and carefully planned for and utter bullshit that completely ruins the story.
>>269787236Because she doesn't have any spells to use on it? What kind of question is that?
>>269794433Just another women in 90s shonen thing I guess. She's a mom? Perma retired.
>>269788330>"If I meet Avan-sensei in heaven, I bet he'll be mad">"No he won't, I'm sure he'll understand">Panels of MaamIntentional?
>>269794256>>269794384>>269794433Avan isn't far from her in age. In fact he's roughly the same age. I take it Roca's death was pretty heavy on her and she just wanted to raise Maam in piece after the events of Hadlar's reign were over.
>>269791669>>269798254Any place to read the prequel?
>>269800050https://mangadex.org/title/263deeff-c010-4ac7-bc01-6341f3e698ac/dragon-quest-the-great-adventure-of-dai-avan-the-brave-and-the-demon-king-of-hellfireThrowing this in just for the sake of it. If any of you are willing to translate so we get faster releases, try to get in contact here. It's all up in frog language if you want to read that too. https://talonchan.wordpress.com/
>>269789776Leira>I'm closest in age to her>Soala is dead>Steenue is married to Junk who would break my spine in half if I tried anything>Roca is deadI'm sure a former thief/cleric fucks good.
>>269789875IIRC Sanjo only created Kill-Vearn after deciding that Avan would come back, he was designed from the get-go as the kind of trickster who absolutely cannot handle a man as perceptive as Avan.
>>269786841Vearn is disappointed in Kill.
>>269800420But Kill-Vearn appeared before the manga's extension, does that mean Avan was intended to return either way?
>>269791143>...I see... That explains it...!!
>>269787725Hadlar is carrying them right now. Much respect.
>>269791125>Avan's massive shoulders
>>269792294He must have bathed in monster blood. He must have also eaten monsters he killed while down there. Some small pack of rations wouldn't suffice.
>>269788161The only good thing anyone can say about Killvearn is that he acknowledges Pop as a threat.
>>269788286Its peak masculinity.
>>269791758Peak fiction has not passed. It still has yet to be reached.
>>269788397>>269788423The interactions between Pop and Hadlar are great. Two character arcs intersecting
>>269788551I still have mixed feelings about this.
>>269788618Killvearn is spooked and shook.Veran is like 'Yep, knew something was gonna happen.'
>>269800632>He must have also eaten monsters he killed while down thereSenshi...
>>269788805>>269788826Its great seeing Killvearn get BTFOed.
>>269800632Avan is an amazing chef and knows a bunch of random utility spells
>>269788940>>269789008Rest in Peace, Hadlar
>>269800867Vearn is more upset over Hadlar failing his one and only achievement.
>>269800746There is still THAT moment so I agree
Using the trip cause I forgot to say it yesterdayToday's storytime might be an hour late or so cause of college
>>269801257Alright, see you then.
>>269800253NTA but thanks.
>>269791714This is why HUNKel activates Maam's ovaries way harder than Poppo.
So in the end what's the actual death count? 1? Baran? but his soul lives in Dai and he can still communicate with him, he even joined with the love of his life in the after life, so he gets the best of two worlds. Hadlar? I doubt it counts.Matoriv? survivesthat old martial god? survivesAvan? lmaoThe sad thing is that Hyunckle gets replaced in the final battle by his gay lover Lahart, and Maam also gets replaced by her very own Teacher, which also happens to be an original Hero party member. Technically multiple characters could've stayed dead and it wouldn't have changed anything, besides upping the stakes and elevating the sacrifices. Hell even earth get nuked and nobody really gets hurt, thanks to Merle being useful, but still. It's retarded.
>>269794141It's true.
Can't wait for Hym's glorious hair.
>>269804924What about all the villagefolk who were nuked into oblivion or kingdoms that were slaughtered?
>>269797857To be fair luffy didn't actually get pushed untill dressrosa or arguably even whole cake island sibce he didn't use gear 4 intill those arcs.And after that he went through some training in wano.
>>269799535Omega doesn't deliver in either the logical or emotional sense. It has no real structure, and just keeps throwing stuff at the wall and doesn't even wait to see what sticks on before starting to throw even more at it so nearly not a single thing has a payoff and what little does end up reaching the payoff stage ends up feeling extremely underwhelming.Logic is not everything, but neither is emotion. If Avan hadn't been mentioned ever again after the died then absolutely no one would have liked him coming back, but as >>269794311 mentioned, Avan was a constant presence through the entire series even after his demise, this being the logical part, with the emotional part being knowing how much Avan being alive means to everyone as consequence of that ever-presence beyond the grave.
>>269808297Exactly, they go together. Though opinions still vary.
>>269804924Worst yet a ton of new characters get introduced and they have an anemic impact.Nova, Flora, the bald captain... None of them really do anything that merits them not being merged into other characters.Like you could have done a better job of bringing back Avan if you tied it to the Megante or the secret dungeon.When Pop uses the Megante on Baran, have Baran say that the tecnique can be used to be reborn with the level of the guy you killed yourself with, but it has like a .001% of working, and its something only crazy priests in Makai did, have him tell that Pop was really fucking close even if he himself didnt know it, that would be foreshadowing so that once Hadora dies, somehow Avan can come back with his level or some shit.Consequently, have Flora mark that its weird that the dungeon has significantly lower resistance than it should, its almost as if someone had come recently.Like maybe others go with the rule of cool, but as I said Aban´s appearance just heralds a fuckton of bullshit that stains the whole work.Death is such an irreversible, definitive and final thing and when used properly in story it can hammer the themes of letting go, accepting the impermanence of things and realizing the harshness of life. The story already had Avan die and have his legacy live on through others, his return just feels so fucking cheap and what it gives pales in comparison to what it takes.
>>269809015Having the dungeon crawlers note that the monster population is oddly low would work, but>When Pop uses the Megante on Baran, have Baran say that the tecnique can be used to be reborn with the level of the guy you killed yourself with, but it has like a .001% of working, and its something only crazy priests in Makai did, have him tell that Pop was really fucking close even if he himself didnt know it, that would be foreshadowing so that once Hadora dies, somehow Avan can come back with his level or some shit.That's an incredibly random thing to add which has no connection to how Megante works in the games and is obviously there just to imply something about the only other time someone used Megante. Also why would you want to make the mentor who's so proud of how much his students have grown suddenly leapfrog past them with zero effort?

>>269809015Your fanfic aside.I do sometimes wonder how a remake of Dai would be like considering how much shit DQ has added through the years since then.It's crazy to think this manga started just after 3 came out and ended a bit after 6.Imagine how much more broken Pop would be with all the modern DQ magic for example.
>>269810319I'd want them to massively cut down on magic immunities because it just makes it unnecessarily hard to write action scenes for him. Some reflections are ok but dime a dozen is too much.
>>269794079Yeah.
>>269809015I agree outside of the Megante part.I feel like avan being the dead, but his legacy living on inside the people who he touched.
>>269789426I think the Charm of Carl may be a nod to this item, or the other way around. These may break with use as well.
>>269812947Infinite Dendrogram has a ton of high-level people running around with charms like that, to the point of people using attacks which hit multiple times just to bypass each others' charms. There's also one book wiith a supposedly invincible warrior who never takes part in duels for some reason, which turns out to be because of the restriction on which items you can bring into the arena; he's wearing a charm but also has a passive ability which makes his equipment indestructible.The same series has a guy who can fuse with his pet demon + a second monster to enter a powerful chimera form. The first time he does this it's with a dragon, and the resulting form is literally called Ryuumajin.
>>269813860Infinite Dendrogram is a setting so filled with bullshit powers and minmaxers that you could put a Vearn-Flazzard fusion in orichalcum armor spamming Five Finger Medroa from both hands inside a Curse Field and he'd last like a week tops before dying to some literal who that hard countered all his abilities.
>>269810319Leona would have been a main fighter for sure. Maybe Merle as well.Leira would have been on a mentor role for the group as well kinda like Matoriv.Maam would likely have a different skillset or jobset.
>>269815117that sounds funny
>>269810149>>269810239FUCK MAN IM GRASPING AT STRAWS FOR ANYTHING TO MAKE SENSE WITH SOME FORESHADOWING, DONT CALL THE POLICE THEY WOULD ONLY MAKE THINGS WORSE!>>269810319Never played DQ so dunno lel>>269813860You sold the setting with that explanation.>>269816227You could EASILY merge post death Avan and Flora into one character, she could have just come out of the Dungeon and then guide the girls and co back since she has been training nonstop there, she could be the one to join the party as a new Avan disciple and pretty much do what he does, the explanation is rather easy, she felt the bigass tremors of Vearn´s palace as he planted his towers across the globe and that was what finally made her come to the surface.Similarly have fucking Crocodine DIEEEEEE, he loses most of his story involvement after the Baran fight, originally it was Pop but have that wedge, Nova could have taken his role and been introduced all the way from the Kings summit.Worse part is as I said, the bullshit is just starting, were about to hit YUGIOH cartoon levels of catapult turtle bullshitShonen babies can take it, let go Avan die like Optimus Prime and scar a generation, dont rez him back and cheapen the whole thing.
>>269816379Unfortunately the Dendro anime is a "we handed the director wagyu cows and he made sausage" level trainwreck; the LNs are the only real way to experience it.
>>269815117>>269816379When everyone is OP no one is and then just becomes a compatibility game.
>>269816626>You could EASILY merge post death Avan and Flora into one character, she could have just come out of the Dungeon and then guide the girls and co back since she has been training nonstop there, she could be the one to join the party as a new Avan disciple and pretty much do what he does, the explanation is rather easy, she felt the bigass tremors of Vearn´s palace as he planted his towers across the globe and that was what finally made her come to the surface.I kinda like that idea.Make her so that she was part of Avan's OG party too to justify her being Avan 1.5 skillsetwise.And add to the tragedy that her man died and she's gonna die a lonely hag.
>>269816626Adding to this, Flora and Hadlar could have quite the showdown if she inherited his arc, with Flore being mad as fuck (She finding out that Avan just died after coming out of the dungeon) and Hadlar having found his new honor, experimenting genuine remorse for having taken away the man she loved from her.
