Why did they try act like Sandrone was a threat?
In the pre Nod Krai quest, did anyone else feel like Sandrone was being set up as an actual possible antagonist? In Sumeru also, when Katheryne's puppetness was revealed, were we not supposed to think that she was slowly collecting data on us? If they were going to go the route they did with her character, why bother keeping up the illusion of a threat so late in the game?? Also was her being friends with Signora ever hinted..this specific thing bothers me a lot for some reason.
Im just a little confused. Sorry for jumping in so late into the discussion- ive kinda only just started wrapping up world quests and main quests.
