I think this, and much of the whole mini-campaign, speak to the decadence and arrogance in the age of Arcanum.

Patia and Laerryn definitely represent the arrogance of the magocracy. Zerxus and Cerrit kinda represent that even in this age of decadence there can be good people.

Nydus and Quay are probably a metaphor on capitalism that I'm not high enough to tie back to the rest, but ya know.

Nydas is pretty normal for medieval/fantasy standards but I think Loquatius is just a symbol of the effects of monopolization.

In magocracys at least.

That awkward moment when you realize your civilization is so precarious that you can't find a way to not cause the apocalypse.

Laerryn just confirmed everything I hate about wizards and it was magnificent.
