Setting up my main save and thinking about the Forge of the Giants from a lore standpoint.

A lot of players take the Frenzied Flame, burn the Erdtree themselves to spare Melina, and then cleanse it with Miquella’s Needle to do Age of Stars or Perfect Order. On paper, it feels like the big galaxy-brain move where nobody dies.

But lore-wise, isn't "saving" her actually a way worse fate?

1.She’s already burned and bodiless: She doesn't have a mortal body to return to. Keeping her alive just leaves her as a wandering spirit with no physical life.

2.It robs her of her agency: At the Mountaintops, she explicitly tells you this sacrifice has become her chosen will, not just her mother's orders ("My heart is set. Do not worry about me."). Stealing the flame completely overrules the one choice she actually makes for herself.

3.She's left in limbo: She leaves you in hatred, believing you doomed the world, and even if you cure the flame, she never finds out. She’s just left alone with no purpose and no rest.

Is letting her kindle the flame the only real closure she gets, or is there an actual lore argument for sparing her? Curious how you guys view

Are Those Side Shine Thru and Also the Pattern Shine thru, Should I go for them for my Mchose g75 Pro

I had plugged it in to my laptop to charge thru the full night, also a little bit before that and yet it's still showing that it's charging. The escape key is still red, in manual it's given that it will stay red till it's fully charged...

How much better than the Ajazz Ak820 Max Plus

Also Pros and Cons

Please Ignore the Kreo Hive 65, it was an impulsive buy Also the Warm Light under the bookshelf I mostly don't use it unless for taking pics

My Concern is that it might not Look as Good IRL or on my desk atleast, also bcz of the keycaps not being pass thru

Size Preference: Anything Less than 100% but more than 60% bcz I do need dedicated Arrow Keys

Use Case: I Don't Really Care about Gaming, my highest priority is just the sound and looks

Excited to start my journey after a 5yr break, previous cube: Moyu RS3M 2020
