spoilers below the cut for catherine’s memories
so i was both happy and a little underwhelmed by the ending. I did like that justin came along for the last memory, because it added a nice touch into the narrative. i’m probably going to make a full length post soon elaborating, but I thought the conclusion of this story was beautiful, with some story elements a touch out of left field.
however, I do have an issue with one thing. i didn’t like the whole “everyone’s special and can conduct Aideen” angle they went for. The message is great out of game, but game-wise, it seems odd. @writingonjorvik made a good point, in that this reveal takes away the mc’s uniqueness amongst NPCs. there isn’t really a reason why we are the mc, since NPC’s can also accomplish what we can. like, i think this angle would work in a medium(movie, TV) that wasn’t so interactive, but i digress.
i do think that catherine has a limited understanding of Aideen, however. in the southern harvest counties memory, we see Evergray perform magic to draw out Aideen. this doesn’t work, and we see Catherine’s horse Nemo disappear into the light of Aideen, breaking their bond. It seems to be implied that Catherine also went too close, as she disappeared briefly. since Aideen had the bond between horse and rider, and Catherine lost that, I think her understanding of Aideen shattered. Since she got too close to both light and darkness, she only sees the parts of Aideen, not herself as Aideen. this is also sort of based on @writingonjorvik‘s post about Aideen’s gift, as I liked Amelia’s thoughts on catherine’s incomplete understanding of Aideen. I highly recommend you read the post, which I will link at the end.
overall, I thought the ending was great. I did like the implication at the end that the previous incarnations of Aideen are all in the light of Aideen, along with catherine. I still have some questions, but overall, I thought the ending fit.

Hey guys! I’ve had this idea for a SSO community movie night floating around in my head recently, and I want to know what you guys think.
Fill out the form linked above if you are interested. If you need help, let me know.
THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN ON TUMBLR BUT
When a character’s emotional state affects their powers
When a character unconsciously uses their power when they’re having some kind of emotional turmoil
When a character’s extreme emotional state triggers some type of transformation that changes their physical appearance and they are literally almost feral and working only off those heightened emotions that they’re feeling
this made me feel an emotion i dont have a name for
If you look outside Moorland on the brightest, most sunny days, you can see the silhouette of a girl standing on the edge of Nilmer’s Highland. Those who have gotten close, say she bears a passing resemblance to Catherine Moorland.
Today we mourn, honor, and remember the transgender people who were murdered because of their gender identity or expression.
