i think another thing people don't really think about Braham is like, i think the fact he is like 18-19 dealing with his mom being violently murdered in front of him that i think almost any Norn would've crashed out at the Jormag news.
"Hey, Braham- you know how Jormag is the ancestral archenemy of your entire race that has inflicted a form of generational trauma onto every single living Norn by breaking your entire race's pride like Bane did to Batman's back? And how you're prophesized to destroy Jormag and we've killed two Elder Dragons? How we have the capability to do this? Well, we've actually decided we're not going to kill Jormag."
like it's not enough Braham is like 18-20 during LWS3 dealing with a traumatic death he also had to kinda process that. i think anyone would crash the fuck out even without their mom's death at that one. if the dialogue wasn't written to be neutral across all races i'm sure a Norn Commander even though accepting it probably would have a LOT of thoughts about it. that alone honestly justified his LWS3 crashout even without Eir's death but WITH it too? the death of his mother and also the Norn's collective trauma and essentially being told "there is absolutely nothing you can do about either. we will lull Jormag to sleep indefinitely and never allow the Norn to claim victory over their archenemy and you will never be able to prove you are worthy of fighting dragons like your mother was." raven's fucking beak.
