I don't think you have to be a 'villain', dude.

I too didn't agree with Mamonos being 'predatory', but I slowly realised that it's not a literal thing. Still, doesn't mean I'm not unhappy with a few Mamonos myself (e.g. Ogres, Manticores, Amazones and Dark Elves) but at the end of the day, they still mean well.

And I don't dare to disregard the Order's fears of "monsters" (after all, the setting technicaly used to be darker). Problem is: you'd think they would realise Mamonos don't mean harm after one freakin' thousand years (come on guys, how slow are they on the uptake ?).

Look, I get your preference for tragedies. Me having gone through some pretty bad times in my life, I despise them. They happen enough in RL. But maybe you can enjoy something wholesome for a change. I dunno. Maybe something to 'snap you out of it' ? Things don't have to be such a downer, that's all I'm saying.

Edit: Sure thing, man. I do want to talk things over. Rather than just scoff it off, I want to get to the bottom of my cognitive dissonance.
