Yes, ok, the massacre at Thesos didn't exist in this stream of timeline. But the representative of the Matis people, Sterga Hamla, does, and keeps deceiving homins who know no better. If he is not an examplary Matis Representative, then have him resign and put someone else in his place. But as Chiang the Strong says when you want to leave the island without doing anything for the people of Silan, "Go and introduce yourself to the Representaives of the 4 nations"
You can't just say "Oh he isn't the best example of the matis ppl..." etc etc.
Silan is the first place. The place of first impressions. I believe Sterga Hamla is the perfect representative of the trickster Matis.
You learn very early on that when a Matis says one thing he will surely mean another! If Sterga Hamla's action offend you and you nobles, have him replaced! I know that the Zoraï, the Fyros and the Trykers are represented properly. Why wouldn't the Matis be as well?
