It’s not that dissimilar. In fact, it’s more like that than it is like the superhero costume change in a phonebooth.

The Silver Centurion is a magical girl transformation? Checks out and sounds like something Frigg would suggest.

I didn’t pick up on Ardaic’s crushing on Syrn’j on the first readthrough, but on the second I definitely took this page to be foreshadowing. All the things you mentioned, plus the fact that he carries her there himself, and the last line – “She’s to important” which just begs the question “to whom?”.
Oh, sure, to the peacekeepers, to Gastonia, to the wood elves, to any number of factions. But that’s not what Ardaic means. She’s too important to him.
Everything else he says is just self assurance that he’s not abandoning his duty for his personal interests
Brilliant piece of character writing by Phil.

I mean from a political point of view they are far more expendable then a member of government, a princess of an allied nation, or the main person responsible for maintaining a alliance, let alone all three like Syr’Nj plus her being a prominent member of the adventurer’s guild and romantic partner to its leader. Even Ardaic is more expendable from a political perspective (though granted not by too much)
