Hey, to be fair, when we condemned Mest, we still thought that August is really this impressive strategist, sage-like, brainy-kinda bad guy he was hyped up to be, so we were misled to believe that negotiation was a realistic option. Now that we know that he's a shallow psychopath like the rest of the Spriggans, I'd say keep up the good work Mest, go for the throat!

But know that I think about it, since August is hung up on the parent-children stuff, Brandish just might bet back in the picture for an emotional resolution. But I'm not holding my breath...
