Even Meldoarth. I don't think he is a bad character per se. I just think that if things didn't go his way to achieve his purpose, it would be harmful to others.

I believe that if former King Idus had ordered humanitarian means in dealing about those who opposed him, the Riva Rohavi would've not been created and adamant to destroy Voulhire. But the sinful deeds of twenty people does not deserved the death of hundreds of innocent people. I can never sympathize to those who think that the actions of the Riva at present can be justified because of the horror of their past. They are downright villains to me.Krista Ash wrote: ↑03 Oct 2020, 14:25 There is evidence that perhaps Lord Orlin did not actually abuse children. The Riva Rohavi have very righteous reasons for hating Voulhire. Meldorath was never given a proper trial before being imprisoned.
Do you think the antagonists of the story are actually villains? Or are they more honorable than the portrayed heroes: King Wilhelm, Chancellor Maido, and King Saint Idus?

As for Meldorath, though he killed and hurt lots of people, he was betrayed by King Wilhelm and never received a just trial. He has his scars, too.
However, I do not think either Riva Rohavi's or Meldorath's actions were righteous. Neither murdering innocent families nor experimenting on people is right. They have their backgrounds, but that does not give them the right to do such cruel things.
