Why did Kalgara turn on Noland?

Answered

The answer

Chapter 288 · updated

Kalgara turned on Noland after Noland killed the giant snake god the Shandia worshipped. The villagers erupted in panic shouting that Noland had slain their deity and demanded blood sacrifice to avert a curse. ch. 288, p. 1 Kalgara then clashed with Noland demanding atonement to the gods while accusing him of purging important steps of progress. ch. 288, p. 3 Villagers later shunned the explorers because they were foreigners who trampled over Shandia history and killed a god in cold blood even though they had made effective medicine. ch. 290, p. 14 "HE KILLED OUR GOD!" the Shandia screamed while urging Noland to slit his throat on the altar. ch. 288, p. 1 "ATONE YOUR SINS TO THE GODS!" Kalgara shouted during the fight. ch. 288, p. 3 "THEY'RE STILL BEASTS THAT WOULD KILL A GOD IN COLD BLOOD!" Kalgara declared to the elder. ch. 290, p. 14 The sources show the sudden hostility began immediately after the snake's death and persisted in later chapters when Noland returned to the village.
