    She showed a willingness to Sunder living beings that we’re going to self destruct their own civilization. The dilemma Venat faced is the trolley problem. The dilemma the Ancients faced is the fat man version of the trolley problem.

    And as always, the group solely interested in defending the Ascians, as well as pretty much every other opposing faction in the game, has decided they know best and we should all just shut up.
