The first one is that... Tyaethe [I]does[/I] do stuff. A lot. That is, guarding the captain with completely suicidal behaviour. That part's just confusing (slightly more than Gillian's glorious ability to misunderstand what she says every time) O_o

Oh no yeah, Thats true. But from Gillian's perspective, that doesnt really help the people of Thaln. And I'm sure she does a ton of other things, but he's either dismissing them or outright ignoring them, in part because he's angry. He's a very boots on the ground kind of guy, so the things Tyaethe does as a (probably) high ranking officer doesnt have much visual impact to him.

As for the corpse thing, Tyaethe IS the corpse he's insulting, not the saint. 

Edit: like, I recognize Gillian's being a jerk here. But thats part of the character right now. He doesn't like a few things in the order, so he conflicts /hard/ with Tyaethe and might ignore the good she does do.
