>>110667248It's odd how a lot of "dark magic isn't evil" posters are also viren apologists. On the surface it's understandable. If dark magic isn't wrong then he did, indeed, do no wrong. However consider his more morally questionable actions, like displacing the king's soul into a bird and keeping him locked up while he tries to take control over the kingdom by ordering his son to murder the princes. If dark magic eats away at your soul and does indeed make you darker, then he has the perfect excuse! It's not really his fault, it's the dark magic, which he feels he must use for the good of the kingdom, sending him down the slippery slope to hell.
If dark magic isn't bad then Viren isn't necessarily bad, it's the dark magic influencing him. He's just a cuddly dude who needs someone to save him. But not Aaravos, that guy's clearly the true evil.
