I think it's so interesting how Berrigan is credited as being one of the biggest helps in driving the outsiders out of Araluen. He's undoubtedly one of the most charismatic among the Rangers, if not the most.

And then we have Tennyson, whose whole thing is how persuasive he is and how people flock to his banner largely due to his silver tongue. And yet he and Berrigan are complete foils of each other. It makes me wonder if Berrigan had anything to do with convincing Araluens that Tennyson was a fraud and warning them not to follow him.

It definitely draws some fun parallels.

Berrigan hours again. Thinking about how rebelling against Morgarath really only bought him a little more time as a Ranger in the end. He's probably the only Ranger that had to give up his Oakleaf twice.

so not to bring the mood down or anything. but since starting brotherband, i’ve begun to think about what it would’ve been like for Berrigan had he lost his hand instead of his leg. like he’s a MUSICIAN—that would’ve DEVASTATED him
