I Think The Reason Virens Redemption Works Is That He Ultimately Got Nothing Out Of It. The Popular Idea

I think the reason Viren’s redemption works is that he ultimately got nothing out of it. The popular idea of a villain redemption is a bad guy changing their ways and eventually being accepted by their former enemies, often becoming one of the heroes themselves. But that wasn’t the case with Viren. Soren didn’t forgive him. Ezran didn’t forgive him. He wasn’t welcomed with open arms. He was locked in the dungeon, presumedly for life. And when he atoned for his past through a heroic final act, no one except Soren even knew about it. And that still didn’t earn him forgiveness.

But that’s how we know that Viren truly changed. For seeking the right path, he received nothing but rejection and death. And he was okay with that. He understood these were the natural consequences of his actions. He accepted what he had done was wrong. His sacrifice was sincere, a servant dying for his kingdom, a father dying for his son. He wasn’t seeking forgiveness, or glory, or power.

Because he had changed.

idk if this is too dark but jewish is culture is whenever you go on a trip with your tzofim shevet that requires flying you lie about what you are and tell everyone you're a tennis team. jewish culture is getting information about the conference for jewish teens you're attending and being told you cannot tell anyone where it is. jewish culture is everyone you're with a large group of jews wondering if someone will come in with a bomb and blow you all up. i wish i could feel safe being in large groups in jewish spaces but i get so scared

not too dark. thats part of what this blog is for, to hold these darker things we don’t have anywhere else to share <333
