Dark Magic is like the Dark Side in Star Wars.
More powerful, more bang for your buck, more gratifying, and arises out of your desire to change the world around you.
But it's philosophically tortuous and always leads you to the absolutism rabbit hole. Aavaros twisting Soren's desire to protect humanity to = conquering Xadia is the easiest sign of it. He was like 5 more sentences from convincing Viren of pure genocide.
I find Viren apologists funny but it starts to get old. Viren himself is a victim of this way of thinking, but that's still his fault, although now he is clearly being manipulated and
radicalized by Aavaros.

What did you want? Fortresses? That's clearly a human trait and not the elves/dragon's style.
You also have to recognize that you would have to spend time actually showing these fortifications in the show, and then what good are they if you're going to battle at the foot of the storm spire?
