Was Varesh supposed to turn good?

After reading the previews (PC Gamer) and watching the documentary (GW:N CE), I was really expecting for a plot point to come up where Varesh was to turn good at the last minute or in the middle of the story of Nightfall. Did I just read too much into it? She pretty much just stayed the path.

I was hoping she would turn towards the light but u could tell just by looking at her there was little chance of it ever happening despite her good/bad family name

Yeah she's 100% evil. I enjoyed laying the smackdown on her at the end. Was a tough battle, she seriously makes shiro a joke.

I was hoping killing her would turn the sea into... quartz or something

If she did i'd lose many chances to piss myself laughing at her speaking. "My loooord Abbadooon" Her voice acting is funny to listen to.

Shiro was a powerful envoy. Then he turns himself human again. Thats more than obvious of how he's a joke. Not as funny as him getting turned into a garden statue.

OOPS SPOILER ALERT!

Well, I found beating up shiro, WITHOUT the celestrial skills harder then whacking Varesh. Yes, at the before last mission, you will need to kill Shiro AND the Lich at the same time, AGAIN.

she wasnt evil originally.... that lady from the beginning of the game tainted her, much like the propher that tainted shiro.... they were both the same entity, and were of abaddon... that is why Varesh went from a model leader to the total opposite, as morghan points out

Again? So I'm assuming you had to do it in a previous game? Not really something I wanted to know... but then again, Guru tends to spoil most everything in these games.

I thought the same thing about Varesh. It hadn't even occurred to me that she was bad until I saw the "Making of" DVD. I like her look much better as a villian, though.

Ehm... I am pretty sure that I put a big SPOILER ALERT before typing that message. So dont come complaining about 'guru spoiling most everything in these games' (what games are you referring about?).


********SPOILER ALERT BELOW********


You're a Go-red-engine if you read this and didnt want to read spoilers.

maybe the person who turned to the good side was General Morghan ?

I'm thinking that general that taught her about abaddon was the same person as the fortune teller. But that could be just a coincidence of close-looks.
