Originally written by The Duke: Its a very complicated matter, but when it comes to it I think the rebels are the lesser of two evils. They have a much greater capacity for change. The shapers have been set in their ways for much too long to change them. The rebels may currently be overzealos due to some of the Drakons, but I have faith that their leader will rein them in and that they will see reason.
Heh, not so sure about all that, I mean, Ghladring seems perfectly happy with setting loose the unbound and burning the world and murdering millions of innocents.
The way I see it, the Drakons are potentially even worse than the Shapers, because they seem to have absolutely no moral reservations about the wholesale slaughter of anything that isn't a drakon, for the most part (asides from that random Trakovite drakon), and seem to be becoming more and more arrogant with each generation. There really doesn't seem to be anyone to reign them in, as far as we have seen.
I think the rebellion definitely has redeeming factors, namely some of the serviles, the drayks, and the human rebels. However, the drakons definitely dominate the faction.
Now, personally, I would say the Trakovites are the best, simply because Shaping seems WAY to dangerous a power to me. To much playing god
But yeah, since the drakons are in control, I maintain that the Shapers are better. A lesser of two evils.
