Emorga All-Seeing is the main questgiver for the Wardens of Wildwood adventure path, maintaining a constant presence throughout. If the questline is played as-is and completed, she's likely to become the official leader of the Weftwood Lodge as it replaces the Wildwood Lodge. This gigantic tortoise avoids the frontlines as best she can, but wields Primal magic to support the actual party when needed, and is a seer.
Emorga is given the responsibility of explaining the situation in the Verduran Forest, and planning the Weftwood splinter-group's movements. That's a lot of responsibility for one character, on many levels. And it has been noted that her strategizing is not the best, sometimes picking sub-optimal approaches or not having clear goals.
Then there's the major hole in WoW's plot, the assassination of Valenar the Green and lack of a culprit to be found. Setting aside the fact that a high-level Archdruid should have enough HP to survive having his face torn off by an overgrown fungus, resurrecting him doesn't work for no reason given - except the fact that he was tired and hoping to retire soon anyway, raising the obvious inference that he just rejected the resurrection. But is there anyone who could have predicted that would happen, if the assassination was actually supposed to take him out of the picture permanently?
Come to think of it, who was it who tried resuscitating him anyway? Well, that should be obvious, Emorga has the Reincarnation ritual in plain sight on her character sheet, and even before checking, every player and reader knows she's a (pseudo)druid who has a decent level. So of course it was her who cast the spell and would have heard Valenar say "Nope, I'm not coming back." And then she's the one who tells the party that they can't get Valenar back, and that they need to keep the situation stable, that she has another group investigating the assassination (though we never hear about that investigation again), and eventually, in passing, that she'll reluctantly have to run for election against those troublemaking violent factions to keep them out of power. She's a Seer, you can trust that she has a good idea how things will turn out well in the end.
Perhaps you've already seen how some of these pieces can fit together.
As the bottleneck that so much of the story gets funneled through, that the writers have already trusted with so much responsibility as the party's patron, it raises a question. If there's something that's going unexplained, wouldn't the likely explanation for that be that she is the one hiding it?
Perhaps Emorga has more of a taste for power than she projects.
More likely, she didn't arrange the assassination, but she did see it coming. She read the omens, checked what the final outcome would be, then when she stepped up to try to give her old, tired friend Valenar a new life, no she didn't.
Ruzadora Swiftmane the Graveknight was a miscalculation, though. Being a druid, Emorga overlooked the tendency of violent deaths to create vengeful feelings to create Undead, even though she lives in a world where this is as "natural" a process as anything. Evil Emorga thought that she'd just need to have the best investigators assigned to putting out "wildfires", then fix the election a bit and go back to business as usual with her in charge. But "the final outcome" turned out to be much further away than she thought.
This isn't THE story. But it's one that makes as much sense as any other.
And if anyone thinks to roll sense motive, remember, Emorga canonically has a +4 Bluff modifier.
