I didn't know if he was gonna be one! He'd found the secret route to our rebel safe house, so I had to make sure he wasn't gonna rat us out. Losing our HQ and all our intel and everything would've been a huge blow to the revolution!
[ sometimes it's hard to take him seriously when he's been nothing but a friendly goofball around her, but. if he's a rebel and he hasn't been killed yet, he's probably done something right. hopefully. ]
Yeah. Though sometimes they're the ones doing the manipulating. The case that was going on during those memories... in the end, it turned out that the victim purposely made his death look like a murder when they viewed it through his eyes in court, even though it was actually a suicide.

The royal priestess does the Divination Séance to show what the victim experienced in their last moments. Which is really useful, but the interpretation isn't always that straightforward. Plus both the killers and victims can sometimes manipulate what's being experienced in those moments to paint the picture they want the court to see.

The silver lining is that a lot more people started coming around to our side once they saw the damage that law was doing at a more personal level.
