Beowulf has become an ally — just as I hoped — and I continue to hope it stays that way, since it seems this party needs every single brain cell it can get, with the male lead sometimes having misplaced priorities and being overly paranoid and all...
He also blessed Ingrid's decision to to be engaged to the male lead; he seems like a bro (well literally he is, having a younger sister who, being a priestess, seems like a good fit to join their party too).
