It took me awhile to realize on why Emet ended up helping us during Shadowbringer fighting Elidibus, its because his soul was cleaned when we defeated him and him ending up remembering our time with him during Eitherys.

That too, but the main reason is because Elidibus isn't capable to continue the rejoinings and desire to put him to rest.

@@Trattato68 That too and also just to simply fuck with Elidibus. And who can blame him, imagine you spending aeons with nobody but that rambling lunatic Lahabrea who couldn't prepare one single profound and captivating villainous speech without falling back to the same worn out pathos if all the lifes on aetherys depended on it and that bore Elidibus who is that kind of colleague that has only his work and no fun in mind, he can't even go out for a drink with him to loosen him up because he's still a minor. And then there's that foolish sophist Fandaniel who really needs some yoga and therapy in his life. And last but not least Venat also known as the pain in his arse, who surely set all of that up purely for the sake of some very wittless and petty joke at HIS cost. Combine that with the fact that amongst all of that there was Hythlodaeus to creat the necessary levity for his mental and spiritual health by being a beautiful cinnamon role, too good for this word, too pure, we also have the necessary explanation and full justification why he may have ended up being a little bit mean and on the edge when we first met him.

I don't think so. I think Emet-Selch was the only Ascian that was able to concede there was another way to accomplish their goals. He believed in the slim possibility of finding someone(s) that would be worthy of carrying his burden (keeping the Ascians memory alive and being stewards of their star). That's why he says he's been testing everyone for eons and found them wanting, nobody ever measured up until the warrior of light and his comrades. Not only does he come to realize that the hero of light is an old friend (or at least someone he knew) but also that he is walking alongside another of his shards (Ardbert). That's why he says it's a "trick of the light". Long story short, Emet-Selch was pretty much committing su1cide by warrior of light, but he couldn't just rollover and let him win because only a true victory would prove the hero of light (and comrades) to be worthy of carrying the mantle.

That was the whole part of why they took the time to explain how aether affects memory near the beginning of the expac, and then everything that happens in Elpis with Kairos. Personally, I think it's a matter of both-he was content just before he died that first time because we did prove ourselves to him, but then urged to cooperate when the WoL summoned him back because the aetherial sea essentially restored him.

My favorite thing about Emet-Selchs's design is that he is always slightly haunched over as to symbolize that he is carrying a heavy burder and about how heavy it truly weighs on him. He doesnt stand purely upright compared to his other Ascian comrades he bears the burden with pride even if it is crushing him. He was evil but he was undertandable. Man i love this game.

It occurs to me everything flawed about Emet's viewpoint is summed up in his line about the victor determining whose the hero and whose the villain. He views everything in black and white, that everything is a zero sum game and that to succeed you need total control. Meanwhile the answer is much more nuanced, in the end there is no true villain to vanquish, no absolute good or evil, only fear, uncertainty, doubt, loneliness and a poor little girl and a sad old man, both in need of not a savior or a dominator or a hero or villain or tyrant, but a friend.

He's a person that did despicable things for a cause he thought was just. Let's put ourselves in his shoes for a moment. Everything and everyone you ever knew and loved is stripped from you, fragmented into what you would consider "lesser beings". What do you do? Do you say "Oh well, guess the only choice is to move on"? Or do you do anything in your power to restore your home and loved ones, even if it means destroying "lesser" beings? I think most of us would choose the latter and find a way to cope with our decisions, convincing ourselves it is for the greater good. But even beyond that, there is another layer to Emmet-Selch; he was the only remaining, non fragmented Ascian that believed there to be another option, other than destroying the current worlds to remake his own. If you listen to him, he says "[f]or eons have I measured your worth and found you wanting" and "you cannot be entrusted with our legacy". What does this mean? It means that the entire time, Emmet-Selch was not convinced that the only way forward was through destroying the sharded worlds but that if he found someone(s) capable of bearing the burden of their legacy and ensuring the new sharded worlds move in the right direction, then that would be just as good. And Emmet-Selch knew that whoever would meet his criteria for carrying their legacy would have to be capable of besting him in true combat; meaning he knew that finding that second solution would inevitably result in his own death. TLDR; he is more of a villain but in my opinion he really isn't hero or villain; just a sad man, operating in morally grey areas, doing whatever it takes to bring his loved ones back or put the sharded worlds in the hands of someone he trusts to also carry on their legacy.
