Unfortunately people in these very forums want to join Emet-Selch and condone his actions, so while I know it's possible, a number of players here are showing me the opposite.

I love Venat as a character, truly. But the way everyone was written to just not question her whatsoever or even condemn her actions as the cruelty it was - that she even says it was - is... a really icky feeling.
The Sundered cannot exactly judge her, because her actions led to their creation, their lives. To judge her harshly is to say they should never have existed to begin with. Though I have no doubt the Scions wanted to give her a piece of their minds for that cruelty, but her admitting to it being cruel meant it was a moot point, she already knew it, they didn't have to say anything.

Emet-Selch btw, only mentioned that his methods never would have brought them that far. I have no doubt he'll forever judge her harshly (as he should).
