Ok bros hear me out:
>End of 2.x
>Sarah manages to bring forth the creator for a moment, but it's not enough for it to fully manifest
>As punishment, it attempts to kill her
>We save her in the nick of time
>She has a crisis of faith
>First half of 3.x has her in prison
>She refuses to talk, though it's really because she's in shock and catatonic
>All she's worked for, everything she's given and sacrificed, just to be discarded
>Second half of 3.x has us visit her in prison
>Due to us saving her, she feels somewhat indebted, and agrees to help us, though she clearly states it's for revenge against the creator, nothing more
>The rest of 3.x has her begrudgingly work with us, accompanying us into hollows to raid exaltist bases
>Every time it seems like she's warming up to us, she goes back into her smug evil bitch self
>End of 3.x has a new exaltist leader about to summon the creator once more, this time with a perfected method
>Rips her apart for her failures, but allows her back in if she defects from our side
>She does so
>As the creator prepares to blast us off the face of the earth, and the currently shilled banner characters can't deal with it, we see her thinking and reminiscing
>How well we treated her
>How she finally had people she could call comrades, even friends
>How she felt like she could trust those around her
>And so, as the etheric beam fires, she does what she always does
>Run
>Towards us
