Spoiler warning
Recent lore indicates that Crow had a pretty bad time with the insurgents who went to the Eliksni camp. While any guardian has their devils lurking behind them the given fact is will he be able to resist the pull when Mara tells him the real truths about himself.
Will that speech during harbringer actually hold true or will he subvert back to his old ways?
My bet is old ways.

Crow (the guardian) has spent most of his life living among Eliksni. He has also shown many times that he is compassionate and doesn’t glorify violence in any form. I think his reaction was completely understandable and not at all indicative of someone displaying narcissistic or arrogant qualities which Uldren was known for.
