  • @Starcat5
    @Starcat5 5 ปีที่แล้ว +134

    Nia may ALSO be an "Urayan" noble. Just about every other Gormatti and Urayan NPC mentions that a fallen Urayan noble house (Duchy of Envia) had a surviving heir by way of a Gormatti noble's daughter. Adenine's Heart-to-Heart "Walking Encyclopedia" spells this out quite clearly. There was even a side quest chain on the subject, though that didn't lead to anything on it's own. However, the implication I came away with was that Nia's father and sister was the decedents of this union. Meaning, that if Nia could be considered the legitimate heir of a disgraced Gotmatti noble line, there is a small but real chance for her to be the last surviving heir to the collapsed Envia noble line. Effectively giving her a bunch of titles that mean nothing.

    • @VanStolin
      @VanStolin 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      For some reason I remember that we find out that it ended up being a load of crap. Something that the current queen made up, spread around and did to try to make that houses legitimacy to the throne look questionable, just in case a member of the line would resurface to depose her. That said, if it did turn out to be true, it certainly would explain how Nia became the ruler of Agnus. She finds ties that bind her to Gormott and Uraya, she saved the Emperor of Mor Ardain, which puts them in her debt and she is friends with both Rex and Zeke, who have ties to Torna and one is the prince of Tantal and next in line for the throne. That is a lot of clout. It also wouldn't surprise me if she ended up as the new Praetor, if the religion still continues. When it comes out that most of the reason for the Flesh Eater hunts were lies, there might be demands for recompense. The surviving Indoline, might wish to appoint Nia as the new Goddess of Indol, to try to save their own skins.

    • @BurstFlare
      @BurstFlare 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@VanStolin Rex's nobility is only speculative and isn't known to the people in the game, not even to Rex himself, so that does nothing for her. And being friends with Zeke doesn't really help a lot with becoming a nation's ruler. Her becoming a praetor is possible, but honestly, unlikely, and I doubt she'd accept becoming a new goddess of Indol (she just doesn't seem like the type of person who'd care about the position). Honestly, I don't think she'd even try to become a queen of any kind unless she absolutely had to for some reason.

      @weberman173 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      3 years late but maybe someone finds this interesting
      actually, it depends on country, and time, and a BUNCH of other factors... but knights are not necesserly nobility
      in some countrys after a certain point in history you had to BE a nobel to be a knight in the first place(so knight wasnt considerd low nobility, but nobility was just required to be a knight making it basicaly the same)
      furthermore, if we go further back in time in those same countries, knights could(or where) considerd gentry, aka part of the upper class, allowed to bear a coat of arms but not nobility specifically, wealthy land owners being an example of gentry(UK gentry iirc)
      while iirc the french equivalent to gentry funnily enough encompases(among other things like the clergy) long running familys that specificaly did NOT gain the right to bear a coat of arms
      also given torna is somewhat inspired by japan more then any other country on alrest, we could assume that a "knight of torna" is a mix of a medieval european knight, and a Japanese samurai. and Samurais are specificaly not inherently nobility/aristocracy(altough a good ammount of samurai clans descended from nobility, however a majority of samurai clans descended from rich farmers etc and Lora fits more into the later category even if she isnt descendend from a rich farmer) meaning that, unless we get confirmation on how the knight system works for the country of torna, we can not assume that lora was nobility she was at least a caste above the regular citizen, but not necesserly full blown aristocracy

    My assumption was that Eandraig had a brother (Niall’s father) who became Emperor while raising Mòrag. Assuming Eandraig had a sister, if Niall had been born before Eandraig died, he would immediately inherit the right to the throne, and the uncle would have had no need to raise Mòrag to be Empress after her father. But, if Niall *wasn’t* born by the time Eandraig died, Mòrag would have been made Empress as a child, as she was the only legitimate heir (over Eandraig’s sister).
    So I feel like her uncle had to have been Eandraig’s then-childless younger brother. He could have inherited the throne over Mòrag and then raised her as a successor until having a child (Niall) later in life.

I can see Mythra, Zeke, Morag, pushing for a new governing system or new royal lines starting with the crew. based on current not old achievements. however can not see rex as a paper pusher or working for a new government directly. special occasions sure, but not day to day. same with Tora. give tora a workshop lab and tasty sausages and he will be happy. now our girl Nia. would head up research in the healing blade arts and non blade arts of healing, HHS if you will. or surgeon general and CDC. I would see Zeke "acquiesce" to Morag as leader. for that would suit both their styles. Zeke as 2nd in command or VP.
