Najimi: Oh please Leo. You only see part of the problem. First, Nature vs Nurture. The point to nature is that us "higher beings" as you call us don't get involved and allow you to grow on your own without needing our help. We could give you a couple rules to at least follow, but that's it. With how Darkness is going, she's only trying to smother nature and she'll end up suffocating it with her persistent meddling. In fact, nature wouldn't be pleased with Darkness' actions as she's distorting the balance. Second, Nature vs Technology. Darkness has been going on about how tech can destroy nature to the point it can't recover. But she's missing something VERY important in her argument. Nature destroys herself. And very frequently too. You think a couple machines could stand up to nature's fury if she used her full power? Please. If the sun went supernova, that would wipe out star systems worth of ecosystems, putting mass extinction on a cosmic scale. And don't get me started on black holes swallowing everything into the singularity. Darkness' worries about nature are unwanted since nature can be a clumsy pseudo-masochist for the best term I can come up with. Nature is perfectly fine being able to grow with technology as long as there's technology that can grow along with nature. In fact, nature's capable of adapting to technology, as there's already a natural entity composed of both natural and technological factors. And third, Darkness herself. I'm sure you recall the broadcast she put up. "You will return to nature's side, and this world will return to its origin, it will return to me." Her words exactly of course. Don't you think it sounds selfish? And even if she's shown proof of her claims, she still continued to destroy everything around her. Banishing her wouldn't help. She had to be sealed to protect nature since her poor attitude does no favors for nature. She would be a nuisance to all. She continues to claim how nature can provide, but hasn't told how nature can take from you as well. Overall, nature and technology are both capable of creation and destruction. It goes both ways. You would see people argue about technology going rogue and doom humanity and want to ban technology. Yet when nature causes the same level of destruction by natural disasters, no one bothers to ban nature, only to whine and complain about why it happened. Isn't it strange? It's a little unfair that only one side gets discriminated if something bad happens to them, while the other side who does just as bad gets no bad reputation. You say that those people going against Darkness have no understanding of her actions, but I think a bit can be said the same to both Darkness and yourself, Leo.
