But ... that read is complete inane?? As in ... single-brain-cell level? It says explicitly in the text that while the Jin clan BUILT the watch towers, they are manned by members of several sects EACH?* Exactly BECAUSE Jin Guangyao doesn't want to recreate the supervisory offices? Trust me on re-reading I paid an inordinate amount of attention to everything Jin Guangyao does. This was a good thing for everyone (except people near Yi city, which by total coincidence *cough* had no watchtower near it).
And let's just say that this is a great point to prove how useful they were? Because shit like that didn't go down in other places that did have one.
*Exact words from 7 seas, volume 2, page 183: "These watchtowers were distributed in remote and impoverished lands, and every watch tower was allocated a number of sect disciples from various clans."
gonna be honest here chief a lot of "uhhhh Ackshually the watchtowers are Bad because xyz" does not read like you guys critically analyzing the text or even drawing from irl historical precedent.....but rather you guys seething and coping that jgy (the villain!!!!!! who is Bad!!!!!!!! excuse you!!!!!!!) dared do something that could possibly be described as having a positive impact on the world
For starters, talk to him like a normal person. Someone should have tried that some time. (Yes, I know a total amount of two (2) people did that - and those don't include Minshan because hero-worship is not normal.)

He's in your room what do you do.
Sorry I didn't know what to do with this photo.
Okay this is lovely. They have an extremely lovely longfic, too*, which I've just read and I have no words.
The Waves are Rising and Rising, to be found on Ao3. Seriously. It's so, so good.
happy valentines day! have some happy 3zun, based on a lovely moment from the Good Mornin'! sequence in Singin In The Rain :)
The night will keep your secrets when you lay your heart bare.
The only point of contention I have is that if Jiggy ascended, they wouldn't need Ling Wen so very desperately.
WHY TF IS JIN GUANGYAO IN THE TGCF MANHUA
Okay. I need someone to make an amv or some such for Nieyao with Control the Storm by Delain. I swear, if anyone tried to actively write a Nieyao song, they couldn't get it better.
So. Volunteers?
We successfully rescued a tiefling child from harpies ...
... recruited the Blade of Frontiers ...
... and got abducted by a devil.
We also freed Sazza successfully,
... adopted a dog ...
... and found Karlach!
Then, wisely, we went after those paladins she's after. Those are level 5. I'm level 3. BUT ... it worked out. Maybe using a guide would spare me my nerves.
We also got very poisoned in the cellar afterwards (tends to happen when the person who can disarm traps is staying home), but we've grabbed all we could carry and ... that will have to do for today.
Both. I'm gonna do both when I finally write my 3zun fic.
Sometimes you have to write a piece that tears apart Jin Guangyao at the seems to see what he’s really made of. For better Nieyao
Trust is not a prerequisite for an alliance.
I want the golden dice. I haven't tried Tactician and I don't have a guide. Yes, I know this is a bad idea and I'll need one eventually.
ANYWAY, meet Black Water, borrowed from Heaven Official's Blessing because Honour Mode needs a) pragmatic character and b) someone who can die and come back because I want to do this with one person.
In that vein, the first autosave is secured elsewhere. This is the only time I'm doing it, I just don't want to go back to character creation.
Let's see how this goes.
How unpredictable do you like your friends, and why is the answer, 'Yes'?
