Him not having wings from the start… just too good dude. UGH ILL BE THINKING ABOUT THIS FOR THE REST OF MY DAYS😭
This family soap opera will be the death of me and I’m not sure how much I can handle this anymore. The idea that Waxaklahun was reliant on Xiuhcoatl to fly is just incredibly angst worthy (foams at the mouth). Not sure if it was a dialogue leak or something he already said but somewhere I saw him say how he wished to see his race soar the sky’s again… just let it sink in with the idea that he himself can not fly…
Has anyone questioned Waxaklahun’s wings? They are basically absent in his model from 5.2 World quest, seemingly replaced by a secret source mechanism rather then them being feathery and well—wings— like in the mural of him.
I have a major theory about this but not enough to prove it to be correct. Hear me out, we all know that he is desperate and down right obsessed with evolution as he foresaw the down fall of dragons when the Vishaps stopped evolving—hence leading to the creation of Och-Kan— but what if its not just the future generations but older ones too… I present you with “Regressive Evolution”. Now before anyone reminds me that dragons can shift and change forms, it still does not make sense from him to have a mechanical version of wings (if they even are wings) when he has his own already.
My fav part of that 5.5 saurian natlan event is when ajaw shows up while everyone is pretending to argue with each other and he’s like “oh boy! We’re arguing? What fun! Haha yes! Let me get in on this!” But the entire cast just simultaneously senses this is an opportunity to rip into him like sharks smelling blood in the water so they all turn to look at him at the same time like this

This might be a hot take but every time someone hates on Natlan by comparing it to Fontaine, a angel loses its wings.
Granted I have not finished the Fontaine archon quest so I guess I can’t speak too much on it but so far I noticed the biggest differences between the two nations is that Fontaine is concentrated on current characters while Natlan is concentrated on the history of the land.
Do I wish more of the Natlan characters like Mavuika would be more fleshed out and interesting? Yes, it would be nice. Would it help the story more? Maybe. But again the current characters are not the point of what Natlan is.
Natlan as a whole focuses so much on its history and origins. All their traditions and tribes came from the original hero’s, the ancient names, the resurrection, the gadgets and tools they use, etc. Everything that Natlan is, mostly based on its history and lore.
I’ve noticed a trend with those who complain that Natlan is the worst nation and it’s those same people who beg for a skip button… why are you playing a STORY BASED game if you don’t want to read (not even cause most quests outside small side quests and world quests are voiced).
Let me make it clear, Natlan has flaws. It does. The stereotypes and lack of character development but it’s not the worst nation. With what it lacks, it makes up with the story. The lore within it is so immersive and huge, down to lore drops after lore drops about dragons to a finding out a normal human killed a sovereign and then made a deal with a shade who we later come face to face with in the AQ. 
Anyway rant over, I needed to get this out before I lost my mind.
Phew sorry for the wait, got a bit busier than expected. Memes for today:

Another dumb Ajaw related thing, based on the confirmation he wasn't lying about the whole Dragonlord thing thanks to the new WQ, have some silly designs based on the dragon npcs and his appearance in Kinich's burst and the pixel sprite.
