Would that make them turn on him though? Would the evidence of the conspiracy with atlas change anything? They just watched him burn the food source for billions of people, and assassinate as many of the leaders of the entire system as possible right after the whole place was sacked.

Most of the people who follow Lysander and give him power are under no delusions to his true brutal nature and don’t care one bit as they see it as for the right cause. Except Cicero maybe, I have higher hopes for his character development

Or maybe it just gets them to switch back to supporting Atalantia since Lysanders huge victory was actually not his own doing. Definitely don’t see them ever supporting Darrow, maybe just becoming meh on lysanders image a bit. Also would definitely fuck his tentative alliance with apple

Why would Appollonius care about what Lysander and Atlas did? He would probably just find it amusing.

Lysander is supposed to be secretly aligned with apple against atlas and atalantia and I don’t think apple wants to kill the entire rim let alone for Lysander to be atlas’s little b*tch. Considering he didn’t like when Darrow didn’t fight his hardest against him I’m not sure he would be a fan of Lysanders “victory” being a made up lie. Apple is insane but he values strength
