So, I’m getting sick of Baru making herself a victim. And then she’s willing to be lobotomized? Oh, and now Yawa is on her side. Baru doesn’t even try, but everybody thinks she’s the greatest thing. Baru’s split brain has its own personality and thinks it’s Tain Hu. And now Yawa thinks of Baru as some sort of prophet. This is absurd.

I like how much we’re learning about the lore and mythology, but Baru is just becoming weaker, more pathetic and not doing anything impressive. And the tumor stuff is still ridiculous to me. Apparently radiation = magic. Baru is clearly a narcissist. She grieves over losing people who were a benefit to HER, who served her or helped her. And doesn’t flinch to lie to anyone.
