    So here's my theory... Matt has been giving some of the Ruidus folk voices that sound like someone else (like the old Bormodo guy who sounds like Johnny Carson, and now Gaz Tomo who sounds like Pat Warburton) - it's bc the Ruidus folk are "mimicking" Exandrians so likewise Matt is "mimicking" other famous people

    The confusion, pain, loss, and love and support between Imogen and Laudna is really fascinating. Are they lost to outside forces without each other or are they betraying each other with their true desires, things they only unconsiously want for themselves. The desire for power or safety and comfort or both ... it's a fantastic dichotomy. Are they helping or hurting each other? What's the alternative, given their pressures and lack of options? I love this.

      With a guy like Ira you take the help with the betrayal. He's a dangerous guy who I'd never rely on doing the right thing. But if your course of action lines up with the direction of his current schemes and/or plots, well he can be useful.

    2:21:00 The point is that Ludinus - as well as many other powerful beings in Exandria - resents the gods for their power, particularly the power over mortality and the afterlife. It's a whole theme that Matt's been doing, high level mages seeking power and immortality. Vespin Chloras tried to become a god, Vecna tried to become a god, the Bright Queen found a means of immortality and wants to see the gods fall, now Ludinus is doing the megalomania dance.
