Many who would disagree with me use the logic of what each side did for you, and yes parthunax did help you a great deal more, but are you not the hero in this story, is it not you who saved the world, your divine purpose in this world is to help others, it is you who must push this world to a better tomorrow, and that is why I kill parthunax, he is a potential threat to the world, he even states that one day he likely give into his natural desire to dominate. The blades on the other hand where massacred nit long ago and are being hunted by the thalmor, so of course they cannot help you a great deal, they are still licking their wounds from when they got blindsided by the Aldmeri Dominion. However, they have the potential to become something great, they can become the sentinels of the empire, and of the world. They are good at their core, while parthunax is fighting his evil within. Instead of selfishly considering what they can do for you, decide what each can do for the betterment of society as a whole. The Blades are also a possible threat to the world, especially if Delpine and Esbern have their way with the Dragonborn. They forgot that they SERVE the Dragonborn. the dragonborn DOES NOT serve them. that reason alone is enough for me to not want to be a part of their "Little Cult". i got more important things to do than go kill Paarthunax. i deliver three followers to Delpine after "Alduin's Wall" but before "Alduin's Bane" to keep them on friendly terms but really won't have anything to do with them afterwards. a real shame one can't finish off the Blades as an option instead of killing ol' Uncle Paarthy. Paarthy does more for you than the Blades. Delpine has you infiltrating the Thalmor Embassy to find info on the Dragon Rising. Paarthy helps you learn the second word (or first or third, depending on how many you got by the time you get to meet him the first time) for the Fire shout. plus. he'll boost the power of one of three words for you. Ignore the psycho Blades and chat with Paarthy. he's better than the Blades and has been around and learned a few things over the 4+ Eras he's been alive. As the Last Dragonborn, you can handle Paarthy should he start showing signs of dementia. until then, Paarthy lives while the Blades get ignored.
