And he is very right about that.

also he when forgets and grabs the emapanda:

a closer look at the details. I've been experimenting with adding more texture to my art, and since then I can't imagine my art without a significant excess of texture and detail.

Teylan: On the dance floor

Tamtey:

I HATE, DESPISE how they didn’t make the MC mourn Aha'ri.

It is a HUGE thing that I hate about the game. I generally love it and everything, but this detail just gets on my nerves too much. I can’t digest it.

Aha'ri is mourned by every other Sarentu except for us, her literal sibling. She is very often mentioned especially by Nor and Teylan, and when that happens, we have no reaction. At first I could have bought the fact (even if it’s not implied in the slightest) that the MC is a more reserved person that doesn’t like talking about their losses/grief. But that’s just bullshit. Our character doesn’t even have a personality, and either way they have no problem mentioning Aha'ri in front of other people, like it’s shown in the game itself.

I remember the MC kind of “““mourning””” her once. In a side quest when we find a Sarentu totem, and the MC says something like “I wish my sister was here to see this”. This is all we get, in the entirety of the game.

Aha'ri is also brought up in several destabilizing circumstances, but that’s still not enough to stir a reaction from the MC. At the beginning, when we are escaping TAP, Mercer brings her up — and not only her in general, but her murder — in a pretty horrible way, and the only thing we say is a very flat, very unconvincing “murderer”. Again, at the extractor plant, Harding brings up her death. And what do we say? Nothing. Not a whisper, not a gasp, not a hint at any type of reaction.

There are surely many other moments like these which I can’t remember now, but you get the idea.

The only reaction we ever get is when we are at TAP-Con1 and find her file. I liked that moment because our character seemed genuinely and realistically distaught, shocked and grief-stricken. But this is literally the only moment in the whole game.

It’s just so ridiculous to me how every other character (including fucking Alma!!) was allowed to bring her up and mourn her while the MC wasn’t. How do they feel about this? Do they feel honored when the other Sarentu mention her? Are they okay with Alma talking about her, even after finding out the truth about her, even considering the part she played in her death? Are they mad? Would they like people to stop mentioning her? Do they think it’s disrespectful? How do they feel about their grief, how do they mourn? Do they feel like they did it properly? Do they like to honor Aha'ri in any way, to remember her, to make her offerings, to talk to her? Do they ever visit her in Eywa, or try to? Or are they stuck in denial and anger? Is it too difficult for them to mourn her in a more “explicit” way, do they just prefer to keep everything inside because the grief is too painful, too difficult to face? Are they depressed when thinking of Aha'ri, or are they rageful, wishing for revenge? How did the MC react right after her death? Do they remember that at all? How did their grief change after they found out the truth about the Sarentu massacre and their mother’s death? Did the loss of Aha'ri become easier to bear, or heavier? Did finding out the truth help them with the mourning process? Did they share it with the Kame'tire, with the other Sarentu? There are countless ways in which a person can grieve, and not one is more or less valid than another. I’m not saying the game should’ve showed a perfect portrayal of grief, but still I would have liked to know the answer to at least one of these questions.

My biggest pet peeve, as brought up in the post, is Aha’ri. Why does Tamtey never talk about attempting to visit her in the spirit world? I doubt she was returned to Eywa after she was killed because a random na’vi child from a supposedly dead clan showing up in the middle of the woods—far away from any other clan—with a gunshot wound is bound to bring up questions that TAP (who literally NO ONE knows about besides the actual workers) cannot answer.

Because of that, her body was likely incinerated or was dropped into something like the Yavä which means she never returned to the spirit world. Neither was any of the clan who was killed in the massacre. And this doesn’t get brought up, at all?

The last remaining Sarentu, who only have a handful of memories of their FAMILIES, don’t even ATTEMPT to search for them in the spirit world? Or that they have zero reaction when they can’t do it? They didn’t question their whole identity because what na’vi can’t communicate with their families?You have to be joking.

We don’t get any scenes of Tamtey or any of the others visiting memories from their childhood to see the ones they lost? Why no one brings up the two kids who weren’t found when Alma finally woke them up? Or the two others who likely died inside TAP after Aha’ri?

why does it never get brought up one of the names you could give your ikran is shared with one of the missing Sarentu kids? Which implies we were close to them growing up?

I understand what they are attempting to do with all of the Sarentu being different trauma responses (Tamtey being an avoider/doing anything to not think about it) but it just seems lazy since, with all they’ve been through, someone is eventually going to break down.

Cut to the From the Ashes dlc, Tamtey’s reaction to TAP plus So’lek’s reaction to Tamtey’s openness about what happened, it is very likely they have talked about what went down to some extent— yet we never see that happening?

Not to mention Tamtey only getting some personality in the dlc centered around So’lek? When they had the whole main game plus two dlcs? Why?

when Tamtey is kidnapped by the Mangkwan+Major B, we don’t get any insight about what is happening to them. Bukowski has canonically killed a child, tied them to a tree and wrote a message in blood on their dead body as a warning and we don’t get any scenes of the same man that had done that when he has Tamtey—unarmed— in a cell.

He’s gonna be the one to be the babysitter when they have to go out for missions, look out, or just want time for themselves

So’lek will make sure to nothing happens to the new generation of the sarentu clan, he’ll even teach them about a few na’vi things and tell stories about his clan and his adventures, even stories about their parents

Making sure these kids feel accepted and loved is one of his top priorities, if any of them find any interest in some human stuff So’lek is not gonna judge

Their sarentu parents are gonna give their kids the childhoods that were taken from them, but since the Mangkwan and the TDA will still be active and I’d imagine that Aranahe hometree would still be under siege, maybe, so the kinglor forest might still be a little dangerous to go to, so they would just be in the clouded forest, upper plains, and the spires more, Just letting their kids run around and explore, obviously making sure it’s a safe area

Rasi would also be a grandmother figure for th kids, just happy seeing the next generation of the clan and helping out, telling them stories of the past, teaching them Sarentu traditions

For the words in this clip, I definitely hear za'u (come) in there. I also hear what sounds like vitra utray. Vitra means "soul", but utray is not a word in Na'vi...however, it's so close to utral (tree) that I almost wonder if it was meant to be something like vitra-utral, "soul-tree", but mispronounced. Na'vi doesn't usually build compounds by just smashing nouns together like that, but it's not entirely unheard of (Eytukan uses uniltìranyu-tsamsiyu for "warrior-dreamwalker" in the first movie), so it's not necessarily out of the question, especially if it's the name of a specific place.

There's a longer phrase that I think might be something like fwa tìsyìng mì sengo alahe, which would mean roughly "...that [we] will soon give in some other place". I'm a little unsure about this one, as it's an incomplete sentence and the meaning is a little odd, but I've listened to it several times over and it's the most viable guess I've been able to put together for now.

Darkeleine comic yayyy!!
