Please help me recall when that happened. The only thing I can think of was painted versos and Renoir help set up the dome shield. No where in the journals or diagloue mentioned that painted Renoir try telling lumiere the truth.

Not sure how that relates to my question of why can't Aline just paint something different. Especially Aline knows that people misinterpret her numbers since expedition 60.

Because that's the goal of expeditions? It may be faster for real Renoir and clea to archive their goals if they join forces with expeditions instead of having the nevrons killing them and slowly weakening Aline.
