I didn’t play the Kyrian covenant campaign, so this has been really confused. I’ve read a few Wikis, but I still don’t understand why Devos and her Forsworn decided to team up with the Jailer? Isn’t the reason Forwsworn were created due to Devos seeing Uther’s damaged soul? Damaged by the power of the Maw via Frostmorne? Why team up with the Jailer then if that pissed her off so much?
I get that this created doubt at “The Purpose”, but why not just create a totally separate faction?
Well, DeVos is just awful for one.
Oh, you mean Devos in the game. Eh, same reason.
I don’t know the answer to that anymore than why flight paths in the afterlife costs gold? 
I could be wrong, but I don’t think Devos was alligned with the jailer.
After she was killed her replacement, Lysonia, aligned with Helya and the Jailer to gain more power
Lmao. How long did you save that one?
Because she literally is not very bright. Absolutely no reason to team up with the Jailer
Devos, when she mentioned a problem, was told by her leader the Archon to shut up and enjoy what she had.
Just like the developers when we tell them arena is not fine with boosting and r1s running rampant in the lower brackets. Shut up and enjoy it.
Madam, this is a preposterous statement. DeVos was quite right that we need to be armed to protect our schools from potential grizzly bear attacks when Jesus is not present. As a schoolteacher myself I personally witnessed at least 7 different attempted grizzly bear attacks, including the infamous bowling green siege years ago. Unfortunately the pro-grizzly media attempted to cover it up.
Many of the forsworn weren’t aware of their ties to the Maw, it was mainly the upper echelon in knowing league. Even Uther didn’t know about it.
The Jailer promised power. Devos couldn’t conquer and hold Bastion just by themselves. She had no grudges to Zovaal and was more upset with the Archon’s ways than she was with the Maw’s. Her doubts and inner conflict ended up spiraling her further down the dark path so she got worse over time than how she started in that cinematic. It’s been years since WC3 and Uther’s arrival.
She believed the Purpose itself was wrong. If the Jailer was going to rewrite the Shadowlands anyways then their goals aligned and better to stay on his side. Her enemy was the loyal kyrians so she avoids having him as an enemy in the long run, gains a strong ally and is more likely to take Bastion. It’s a win-win either way.
Well you see the Archon wasn’t taking the threat of the Maw seriously enough, so the only way to fix that was make the threat of the Maw greater.
IT’S SERIOUS NOW!
I don’t think Devos was aligned w/ anyone.
She just, after much push back, decided to go her own route which corrupted that spirit and good being into a darker version.
She was. She stated outright during Spires of Ascension that she was on Team Zovaal.
The Archon wasn’t convinced by how alarmed Devos was, so decided the best way to show her the threat of the Maw was to join it and bring death and destruction to Bastion. Once the Archon was dead, then she’d understand!
Current writers are clearly fond of adolescent anime.
I’ve had half baked Betsy DeVos jokes running in my head since I first ran Spires.
The writers stopped making sense when the Horde survived Siege of Orgrimmar. Why are you surprised by Devos siding with the guy who made her betray her path in the first place? That’s like asking why the Horde went along with a crazy undead who wanted to kill all living (including them).
Australia has the Emu War.
But you know what us Americans had?
The Grizzly Bear War.
And it was a stalemate, neither side won. But the bears wouldn’t stop attacking us and raiding isolated farms and villages. Lucky for them, they’re in the endangered species act, which means they can freely attack us and there’s nothing for us to do.
How fascinating, I must do more research on this. I had heard of the legendary Emu War the Australian bogans fought against their avian rivals, apparently they were routed quite handily and many of the machine gun emplacements they set up proved ineffective.
She clearly states she’s aligned in the dungeon where you fight her
The Jailer got her to see how easy it was to destroy their precious “purpose” so she joined him
Jailer isn’t exactly asking
For perfectly understandable reasons that were never explained or explored and happened off screen.
