Let's be real about this, before Season 36, if someone dressed in a Monster onesie came up and said they wanted to talk to you about your childhood, you'd have assumed what? Correct: that they were an SSMAS fan who wanted a date. Well Nectar changed all that: she set out on a mission to change Bastion for the better, helping train Monsters in a healthy way, and to train people too.
Not in a strange Gladiator sense, but in the sense that she saw the pain and worries of Bastion and how that was weighing people down and she decided to change that simply by talking to people. She helped them find the route of their problems and walked them along a path of helping them help themselves, and that was something that the city sorely needed.
And indeed, as Nectar's Therapy became more commonplace across the city, the city became more self aware. Monster Trainers like Malbec stopped being worried about their parents' shadows; fans started to think about what the Monsters might be feeling, and stopped projecting their own pain onto the Arena, and started feeling themselves.
Nectar started a revolution. Not riots, not political, but of self-care, and introspection, planting the seeds of the healthier Bastion we live in today.
It wasn't just Nectar's starting to thinking about minds that changed Bastion, it was the people around her she affected. The legacy she left to Dr Frost started Frost on a path to truly changing the city's attitudes: her Monsters, Black Diamond and Custard, became an integral part of Dr Frost's approach to Monster-driven therapy, and it was that legacy that's inspired many of our teaching methods today.
