I need to get this off my chest...

It's almost as if... you took it out of context intentionally?

No, it's that you don't mention that in those 20k - 40k words (20k is the minimum... and meaning it takes exceptional story to do it ) your character has to be or turn evil.

You're entirely wrong in that line of thinking, I just want to say.

Sadly I have nothing to really contribute to the discussion at hand at the moment, but when I gather my thoughts I may have something more constructive to say.
