Well to reply to Wayne's comment about Lao. I really just barely scratched how fucked up Lao is mentally to be honest. Think of him as a crazed teenager war survivor whom is able to murder friends and family and or mentally screw with them just to justify his own existence and or 'pay them back by letting them live' just to let them suffer some more. I don't want to over blow Lao however as he is essentially a expy of Rau Le Cruset expect much more childish and where Rau is able to put up a good disguise for his madness Lao openly displays it in his doings which makes even his own soldiers afraid to serve under the man.
