>>54507615Because people lack reading comprehension. Here is the order of events:
She meets the ogre with you.
She expresses two reasons to keep things a secret:
1. Her brother would feel bad having missed the ogre.
2. Her brother would endanger himself late at night to see the ogre.
Her brother has a history of going on the mountain and has been scolded in the past, so her concern is reasonable.
The next morning, the grandfather tells the story and instructs her and the player to keep the secret. At that time, she expresses frustration that she really has to keep the secret now. She was going to tell her brother until grandpa said she couldn’t.
Kieran heard the whole thing, so he should understand that his sister and the player have been commanded to keep things secret. The grandfather even says he’ll tell Kieran in the future.
Carmine actions were completely justified given prior actions by her brother and respecting her grandfather’s wishes. Kieran’s version of events is all in his head and we have good reason to believe he should know better. The player is in an awkward position and defers to the judgement of the adult grandfather on matters concerning his family.
Anyone who actually reading the dialog can clearly see that Kieran’s anger is not justified. In truth, he always saw himself as a victim. It is his default world view. If his sister and the player are innocent and well meaning, he can’t be the victim, so he makes up things without evidence to justify his victimhood.
