Damn, Viren got me good with that illusion. I was so shocked that they would kill him off like that. That explains why Claudia was the one casting all the spells during the battle.

I like how he could have just had the illusion disappear after the battle was over, or had it run away to try to distract them for as long as possible, but instead he was like "Nah I'm gonna lie here under this fuckin blanket, and hopefully Ezran happens to come this way completely alone and gives me the chance to shank him".

Seriously though it was a little bit silly how they're literally like 10 feet away from a massive army, but nobody other than Soren showed up when Ezran yelled. In fact they really shouldn't have let the boy king wander around a battlefield all on his own in the first place.

oh man, I cracked up imagining Viren scheming this out now. I wonder at what point in battle his illusion decided to drop down and cover itself with a blanket LOL

Yeah, at first when I saw the blanket I thought "Oh wow, did Ezran just bump into some random soldier's corpse?" That would have been twisted, in a good way.

But no.

I seriously thought he tripped over a covered dead body and was going to be horrified.

I thought the implication was that it was Claudia's illusion, and she lured Ezran there for some reason.

It was Claudia's illusion not Viren's

I just realized if it was claudia's illusion does that mean she was willing to kill ezran

Can illusions kill? I believe it was just 3 moths with a magic hologram cloaking them.
