Ahhh I'm so torn about the rat loyalty debacle. Truly, it feels like it can go ways I can't even imagine, I'm so invested. While the sleepy rat having doubts is justified, basing her doubts on a 3 month old rat that was literally raised on the idea of betraying the Naga labyrinth shouldn't be her only point of judgment. Again, what the rats have going on could be more than a subplot and I can definitely see it having adverse effects on how the 9th floor will proceed, but creating an entire regime just to ensure loyalty is kind of bizarre for me... I think if the MC would've at least let the "enemy" rats try to live their life outside of the labyrinth, if only to teach them how good they had it, it would've been so much better than an internal mass murder that he basically wasn't really aware the scale of....
Morrigan is kind of in the same situation as the MC as he has lost his past and is sort of blindly fighting for his life, granted that he killed the nagas that were COMPLETELY INNOCENT FROM HIS MISSION, being able to control your power when you literally spared 2 high powered beings on the premise of them not being your enemy and then killing basic workers (NOT THE FIRST GEN NAGA SACRIFICE) isn't really a consistent principle...
I love the principles of war and society building, I do hope there is some maybe brief discussion about how the 9th and 10th floor war will affect the above ground... (still kinda confused on where this layering comes from and how it works in different countries, etc)
