i don't expect much out of japanese game series novels. when you've got a big universe with lots of place to expand and explain, it's pretty normal to want to fill in some of the stuff that gets left out of the main game. sometimes these can give us insight to the characters we didn't have before, different outlooks on certain in-game events, or

I, too, was confused with the incongruity with game canon. I was always under the impression that what happened at Temza was a MASSIVE, official battle of the war with far, far more than just 1000 Imperial troops.

And what was up with "Damuron" and "Canary"'s non-relationship? I mean, the whole Raven-Yeager-Casey sidestory is vague, but definitely gives the impression that there was a LOT more to Rae and Casey's relationship than this novel chooses to give them.

Also, I don't dig the fact that the Alexei isn't already bat-shit-banaynays when he revives Raven. Nobody short of a tyrannical nutjob would revive the dead with forbidden technology, imho.

SEE i always imagined Alexei as being high-up, but not the commandant yet in the war? and then all that fighting happened and he got promoted but all the war atrocities had turned him a little bit bonkers, thus setting the stage for his massive trolling in the game.

i guess now he's just always been batshit? i guess?

No, that's the way I saw it, too. Alexei already being bat-shit doesn't make any sense - who would keep a Captain around who's clearly...

Oh wait. Cumore. That puts a rather large hole in my argument, but I'll stick to it.

WELL cumore was only a captain and got in through pure nepotism by his social status, iirc. alexei started out fairly low in the ranks and climbed them over time and was known as a young bright eyed idealist so ... what happened? PLOT HOLES FOR EVERYONE

Another good point! FAIL. What is up with Namdai licensing all this Tales-canonical fuckery?
