Yeah, it's an interesting discussion! Like the topic creator, I have a few questions. I hope it won't be off-topic, as the topic isn't really defined by specific boundaries. So:
Let's remember the end of the original game. Isabel is freed. Zephyr says that Isabel will be sent to the silver cities and isolated, and so on, but in the final cutscene, we see that she is with Godric and, by all accounts, is already Biara. So, the question is: how did they swap the rescued Isabel for Biara? When? In Hell itself? But where did Railag get the real one if she wasn't in Hell? Were three out of the magnificent four clinically idiotic, and Isabel didn't notice, but Railag did, took her somewhere, and didn't care about the future of the world, knowing that Biara, even if under the guise of Isabel, would be on the throne of the empire? It doesn't quite add up... :confused: :eek:
