Re: Which makes him the most evil of the Forsaken... or the least evil Shishka Send a noteboard - 02/03/2010 05:30:43 PM
I understand what you're saying (I think), but I would word it differently.

Ishamael's beliefs are, by our definition, evil.

Therefore, Ishamael is, by our definition, evil.

But, Ishamael doesn't believe he is evil, nor does he believe the DO is evil, nor does he believe in evil. He simply believes what he believes, and doesn't care about any arbitrary label of that belief as Good or Evil.
Rise and fall, turn the Wheel,
'cause all life is
is really just a circle.
