Talaria has an appreciation for logic and reason that Prowl and Shockwave would greatly respect. She rejects the autocratic rule of the Astrologer priests for what it really is: religious enslavement that is driving their people to starvation and trapping them on an island surrounded by electric lava. Talaria knows that they can head to one of the other islands for a better life, and is not above an insurrection to achieve her goals.
