Who else just really dislikes Danica Pure-Spring?

For a priestess of Kynareth I just find her really unlikeable. I mean, you do her quest to fix the Gildergreen.

You get back after the first part of her quest and she sounds almost dissapointed that you succeeded and outright tells you that she didn't expect you to survive (so she was pretty much cool with sending a random stranger to their death)

Then she tells you that she doesn't want to touch the damn thing that you got for her and asks you to do the next part as well and once all that is done she barely thanks you (if you picked the "good" option) and then doesn't even bother to pay you. No reward whatsoever save a very half-hearted thanks.

It got me wondering just how many poor sods she sent to die who were just trying to be helpful to a priestess before your character comes along and from the end of the quest itself how a priestess of Kynareth can be so clueless (she also didn't really endear herself when her final words are pretty much "yeah, I was short sighted and had the wrong idea all along but it is totally the fault of the rabble in the temple distracting me from what Kynareth really wants) :P

I like her, mostly because she doesn't beat around the bush. She didn't expect you to survive, she didn't really want Kynareth her solution, she's more practical then most people in game. I appreciate that.

I like her well enough. Wasn't expecting any reward for doing it, its a job from a temple, they don't do that kind of thing. I take it that after she ask me to go get nettlebane she thinks about it and thinks it was a bad idea to send someone she didn't know to do such a job. The thanks might be half hearted, don't remember, but it is coming from someone that is (atleast by her statements and maybe a bit of my own imagination) very busy putting people back together. She does offer to train you in restoration magic after and that's the actual reward I think.
