Whose side I am on?
While there are number of characters that I root for, such as Vanessa, Brockta the Stomper, Iszhog, Lokar the Crusher, Amari (Arkain books only), Flammedus, Praxeus, Cora Redfist, Logan the Skirmisher, General Whitefield, Sir Edoarus the Executioner, Haran'tel-kazor, Lord Margazar, Urshan, Nysara, Vermon and perhaps Quiraness, as well as Salana to some degree, there is the single character that is above all the others.
And that character is none other than…
Inara
Yes, who else but her? I was, am and will always be on Inara's side. Almost no other character has me as invested in plot of the Arkain as her. She has dark and tragic story. She has certain flair and edge that others don't have. She should, no, she MUST kill Zoia and the Wolf Regiment. She should, no, she MUST be the strongest Orc, the strongest Dominion character, equal to Volarian, Corrupted Aedale and Rahandir Drakeskull at the very least. And it would be nice if she was the mascot for the entire Legends of Arkain. Alright, Gardon, the Ironfist/New Zyainor, other humans, Elves and Dwarves might take precedence over the Tribal Dominion, the Dominion might play the second fiddle to Gardon and others, and Gardon might be superior to Amari and the rest of the cast, even Aridon the Watcher. Very well, I concede and accept that the Humans, the Ironfist especially, might get prioritized over the Dominion and everyone else. If Legends of Arkain might be, or is more human-centric, then it's fine. Not my preference, but I can accept that for what is is. And yet, no matter how the story goes and whether it will go in favor of the Humans (Gardon most of all), Inara should still come out on top. In some shape or form she should be the ultimate victor in the entire Saga of Arkain. This is also the only way for me to give up on my anti-human, anti-Gardon, anti-Ironfist, anti-Regiment bias.
In short:
Inara > Gardon and The Ironfist/New Zyainor > Tribal Dominion.
The Tribal Dominion vs Ironfist/New Zyainor, who wins? Inara
Amari vs Gardon, who wins? Inara
Inara or Gardon, who is superior? Inara.
---------
But what about Aridon, Brian and the conflict between them? Whose side I am on? The answer is…
Largoth
I am on Largoth's side. He is dark, menacing, but can also have a certain sympathetic side. Whether pure evil, malicious and insidious or having some sympathetic traits and pathos, Largoth is a great character, who I prefer as the ruler of Arkain. And aside from him, I am on Lisara's side. It's time for the alluring and deadly Succubus, a dangerous femme fatale to be the boss rather than some overglorified and annoyingly romanticized males (Gardon, Aridon and Brian, though I have no real beef with the latter two).
In my mind, Tregakh the Dark One is the most tragic, sympathetic and perhaps the least hypocritical and two-faced of the Four. The most honest as well.
In short:
Aridon or Brian? Largoth and Lisara
Aridon vs Brian, who wins? Largoth and Lisara
Ranks of Superiority:
Inara > Largoth and Lisara > Gardon > Everyone else
