“When we first met, did you ever imagine we’d find ourselves here? Me, wealthy beyond imagining. You

“When we first met, did you ever imagine we’d find ourselves here? Me, wealthy beyond imagining. You, still alive.”imo this is one of the funniest interactions in the game, and it’s a shame it’s so easily missed??? the way this casual conversation is taking place deep in some ancient haunted ruins that canach has already managed to gentrify beyond recognitionthe way he’s coolly slouching to the side, comparatively tiny in his norn-sized chair that was undoubtedly custom-ordered the way there is Absolutely Nothing on his massive deskbut most of all, the IMPLICATIONS of what he’s saying?when we first met back in living world season 1, canach was working for the consortium, and the commander was already a renowned hero. so he was already working to become rich, and they were already fighting to make life worthwhile. so initially, this statement doesn’t seem contentious. but… the vast majority lws1 is inaccessible now. so the earliest version of canach that MOST players have met is during the vision of Canach’s Lair, through the scrying pool in the eye of the north. at this point in the plot, canach is no longer a smug, levelheaded capitalist. he’s been on the run from the authorities for months. he’s high on painkillers that he’s been using to drive the local megafauna to maul people. he’s been decapitating his old business partners and carrying their heads around in a sack. his home is a cave that he’s personally rigged with landmines and toxic gas. the commander has cornered him in that cave, and canach is trying his best to Stab Them To Death. he’s FERAL. and back in the present, as if to reinforce this, your eyes are drawn to the ornately framed poster hanging boldly above his fireplace. “WANTED FOR QUESTIONING” and an unflattering police sketch. canach has painted over the printing of his name, and written his personal signature over it with a flourish. you can tell he’s proud of it, because he’s got a couple more hanging by the clubhouse entrance for good measure. so if THAT’S the standard for our first meeting? yeah, no! i don’t think either of us imagined it ending like this! godspeed, you beautiful bastard. -- source link
