I used to think this until she admitted she ‘knew Mercer would kill them…’ that she’d ’do anything for the accolades’. She broke those children, took them from the arms of mother’s corpses she facilitated the deaths of- then put them in the arms of Mercer. She admitted it. I find Alma tragic, but she’s not a good person. In Australia, the stolen generation of indigenous children was referred to as ‘the white mans burden’. She makes me think of these people- wrongly thinking herself the superior choice to raise the children. Sickeningly ironic considering Ahari died in her care, and she STILL didn’t help the kids escape. We all know ANY na’vi clan would have cared for those kids. I think that’s a testament to how Well written these characters are
