It'll hound us throughout the mission (I'm assuming our attack gives it a chance to escape and go out of control, which'll give plenty of opportunities for find grisly scenes with tons of eye-less corpses), and once we've fought Faynoc's minions, we'll have to hunt it down. At first we try to kill it, realize we can't do that, so Impact, or maybe Rayleen, tell Pierce that "you helped create it, you look out for it. Your responsibility."
That'll give plausible reasons for its introduction, and explain why Pierce would even want it.
Oh, come on man. I had this totally bitchin' idea for Pierce's sidequest. Everything was filled out, it was all neat and tidy. Then you posted this. Pierce's sidequest is going to be eventful enough, with a final battle that will put Phantomere's battle to shame.

I'd rather not mix Enmakki in there and just let it have its own sidequest.

Seriously? The whole brainwash thing. But everybody does that. Hell, the level of drama you're suggesting, plus his sidequest, would cement Pierce as the main character, because I doubt anybody else has that. And do you really want Pierce as a main character? Because it's only a stone's throw away from team leader then.

That your final decision? 'Cause the only way to keep Enmakki from taking the spotlight is to put it in some jackass' pokeball and being just a random mook. I mean, I just had this idea for a second sidequest revolving around Enmakki.

Of course, if you're putting your foot down you're putting your foot down. I can make it work either way.

Screw it. Someone else can do it this time. It's late and I'm tired. It wasn't that many paragraphs anyway! You don't hear any of us complain when we have to read your gigantic posts.

Post summary: but mooooooooom.
