Alright I will stop.Â
In all honesty, I have yet to understand people who want to align White Magic with evil when it's so clearly not designed to do anything more than heal. Â Even weaponizing it appears to be extremely harmful in retrospect, and may very well be what accelerated the War of the Magi's damage of the earth itself. Â There's plenty of other magical schools that are either on the edge of evil, or just outright evil. Â I guess I just don't understand why someone would want to use the one intrinsically good and beneficial school of magic that way when there are much easier, and more sensible schools to access.
And I atleast am someone who doesn't like the entire "why use x when you can use y". It takes a character with questionable morals to use magic that is considered "evil", and someone either dilusional or twisted to use something outright evil. But twisting the essence of what can be seen by nearly all as good? That takes a very special kind of dedication. The hardships in acchieving that endgoal are much higher than with anything else yes, and it is much less sensible for a reasonable person. However who is to say that the character in question is reasonable.Â
And if everyone simply goes with the easy solution then things grow a lot less overall engaging if all that was played out was the safe and easy way, wouldn't you agree?
