    Actually, one of the other threads on this subject (funny how only some duplicate threads get closed) had a very plausible explanation on how T'ket knew Sela was a Romulan - Sela told her herself while she was shooting them up. 'They destroyed Romulus', yada, yada, yada was why she was killing them. Check the dialog at that point in the Episode. Hence, she is a Romulan. (Well actually she could have thought she was a Romulusian but that is a mighty awkward construct).

    I put the blame where it belongs. On the iconians lack of self control and restraint for being so much higher then the other puny lifeforms. They needed to have their planet slagged. that would have stopped the war then and there. Instead now there's a foe much more of a threat than the dominion who can rebuild forces at will, and have the added bonus of sitting back and letting T'ket do their dirty work, but nope they come in peace. Sorry but I don't buy it. If your soooooo greatful for the "globe of peace" from star wars than stop her don't let her keep attacking for bloodlust.

    L'Miren said she won't stand against her. That doesn't mean she won't confiscate most of her pets and toys before, so she doesn't cause a mess bigger than occasionally attacking the First City or making colorful circles in the sky of Qo'Nos.

    Though to be fair, giving an in-game explanation about why there are still PvE queues with Herald forces was pointless and ultimately makes T'Ket look worse, because there were no in-game explanations for the rest of the queues:
    -Undine still attacking despite the events of Mindscape
    -Vaadwaur making Harry whine at Korfez despite the events of Takedown
    -Tholians still trying to scavenge the same mirror ship
    -Klingons still attacking despite Surface Tension
    -Donatra and Simmons/Manus of Borg still being defeated again and again
    -etc...

    According some rumors, everything bad in the universe is Geko's fault. I must have been ill-informed if it's picard's then.

    u know, this proves it...Geko is a Q! he's out to cause chaos and mess with us; "one creatures torment, is anothers delight" -Q

    I think the queues might not be the biggest reasoning behind T'Kets actions. I think it might also to allow telling further stories with an Iconian antagonist. Maybe T'Ket will even play into the Temporal Cold War storyline. Or maybe it provide an opportunity to end the Sela-arc.
    Also, another aspect here is. The Iconian War was a really big and serious thing - having it go entirely is a bit too much of a reset button. It makes sense that some Iconians can't forgive.

    Yes, Sela may have caused the destruction of your homeworld.

    But remember, Sela wouldn't exist if Tasha Yar hadn't gone back in time with the Enterprise C.

    And Yar only did that because Picard let her.

    Romulus' destruction falls squarely on the shoulders of Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

    #BlamePicard

    though that is true remember it was not the fault of the prime timeline Picard, it was the fault of the alt timeline Picard that was created by the temporal anomaly so really if anything it was ultimately the fault of the temporal anomaly.

    having said that the prime timeline might not exist as it is either and could in fact be far worse if the alt timeline Picard had not allowed Tasha Yar to go with the Enterprise C so perhaps they should be thankful of the temporal anomaly and the alt timeline Picard also.

    that's the problem with messing with time - too many what if`s instead of what is.

    When I think about everything we've been through together,

    maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

     and if that journey takes a little longer,

    so we can do something we all believe in,

     I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

    No. Nope. Never. Nunca. I reject your reality and substitute my own.

    Sela is an adult and only she's responsible for her actions.

    And TBH we had countless opportunity in this game to kill off Sela. Yet we didn't do it.

    Sela is like Emperor Palpatine... Despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, people still kept defending his right to live...
