Zoe Rayne’s Palworld Journal Entries Reveal Her Story
Journal Entries Can Be Found Across The Islands
In the first Zoe Rayne ’s Diary - 1 , Zoe explains that she is totally alone , never seeing her female parent , and is a victim of abandonment by her sire . Though by the time the protagonist meets Zoe , she ’s the powerful loss leader of the Rayne Syndicate , her parentage report is much darker .
call forth by thugs from the family , Zoe was the girl of the organisation ’s genus Bos , but no one really care about her until Grizzbolt came into the ikon . allot to Zoe Rayne ’s Diary - 2 , Grizzbolt was ab initio a seize Pal that the syndicate planned to sell . Relating to the lonely galvanising beast , Zoe hatch a architectural plan to rid it from its coop .
Palworld has met with a sight of success , but it was n’t always so well-heeled . A novel blog post by Pocket Pair ’s chief operating officer detail the difficultness of exploitation .
After bonding with the giant electric Pal , she was trance by members of the Rayne Syndicate and cast into a cage with Grizzbolt . After busting free from the metal bars of the cage , Grizzbolt shocked the thugs , thusestablishing Zoe and Grizzbolt as the true drawing card of the consortium .
Zoe Rayne Is Conflicted About Her Role
At Her Core, She Loves Grizzbolt
Though Zoe & Grizzbolt stand as the biz ’s first major challenge , capping off the tutorial dowery of the game , the narrative behind her motivations shifts the perspective of her defeat . In Zoe Rayne ’s Diary - 3 , she touch on on the engagement with the Free Pal Alliance . She admits thatshe does n’t exactly love why they are fighting , just that they ’ve been fighting for a long time . Later , she explain that she admires their sexual love for Pals and say , " I bet they ’re not high-risk people if they enjoy Pals that much , " but go bad on to say that it ’s " complicated " and years of tension make a peace of mind agreement apparently untenable .
This could be viewed as an allegory of factual tension between body politic or cultures that have persisted for hundreds or even thousands of years . Lines could even be drawn between gang violence and the conflict between the Free Pal Alliance and the Rayne Syndicate . Sadly , the raw generation born into these conflicts often does n’t understand why tensions even start in the first place , carry through a theatrical role in a warfare they do n’t even need to be a part of .
Zoe Rayne Questions Her Own Existence
Internal Reflection For Palworld NPCs
Later , inZoe Rayne ’s Diary entry 4 and 5 , Zoe continues to question her own existenceand potential life sentence outside of Palpagos Islands . She ’s aware there is a land outside of the conflicted soil she grow up in and wonders what the elephantine Tree of Life is off the sea-coast of the island — a destination for the premature traveller in the traditional knowledge . She yearn for something different but ultimately yield to her own history and habits .
While it has no concrete timeline , developer Pocketpair has given out a list of feature it plan to add to Palworld during its early access period .
She question why she even protect the Rayne Syndicate Tower to begin with , with no savvy of her function or why she even satisfy it other than to protect an unnamed power . This open frame from the game ’s master account is an specially interesting one ; as often as players , people do n’t really think about why they are doing something in a game outside of it being the game ’s objective . In this case , Zoe is also aware of this but continues to do it for no better reason than some inherent internal drive .
Defeating Zoe & Grizzbolt No Longer Feels As Satisfying
Zoe Rayne Isn’t Actually Evil
One interesting revelation upon learning about Zoe ’s backstory is that one realizes that she is n’t really evil . Raised around a chemical group of unscrupulous homicidal thugs and destine to launch the Rayne Syndicate due to her last name , it seems like guarding Rayne Syndicate Tower is n’t even something Zoe would do if she was n’t essentially forced into the role . Morea victim of setting rather than an evil - hearted somebody , Zoe is put in a new light by this revelation .
According to the diary entries , it seems like Zoe would be just as glad as a soloPalworldTamer , exploring the world and its mystery story . Even more compelling is the fact thather ideal align with the Free Pal Alliance , and if circumstances were dissimilar , she could realistically join that organisation tosave and barren Pals instead of standing as the biz ’s first intimidate chief . This put an entirely different context on usingPalworldglitchesto easily level off up on her , and makes the gaining control glitch on Zoe & Grizzbolt especially distasteful when you conceive preceding trauma of her being cage .
Though it ’s deplorable that one must defeat her upon knowing this to promote through the game no matter , reading her diary incoming sure as shooting puts a new twist on her role in the universe . Though it would n’t seem like it at first glance , Palworldhas a pretty interesting lore beyond Zoe & Grizzbolt , exploring what the chum are and how they come to be on the island , making finding the Journal entries strewn across the function something worth spending some clip on .
