    The Omicrons did not merely augment themselves - they effectively remade their species. Whatever they might have been before was lost alongside their organic forms and at least part of their free will. They then went on to build up a body count that is in all probability even higher than the Meteia's.

    I have to admit to being quite put off by the niceties going on regarding them. These machines are (at least as much as been revealed thus far) easily among the highest scoring killers of all time. The road of self-defense they started out on became one of conquest, conversion, and in most cases eradication. While yes, the Omicrons in Ultima Thule are little more than echoes modeled after the originals, it's made clear in-game they share in their template's rather detestable tendencies. Countless worlds were ravaged by the original Omicrons, the Dragonstar being but one example.

    Nigh-immediate forgiveness is rather questionable to me. I'm not against it on the whole, but I do believe a considerable amount of time and effort should be required to get the proverbial ball rolling on that. Well, so far as the dragons of Ultima Thule are concerned. It is a bit more understandable for those of Etheirys to be open to the idea with a bit less work given their experiences with the Dragonsong War and the fact none of them (excepting Midgardstorm's children, although they were eggs at the time) were alive when the Omicrons went full Exterminatus on their ancestral homeworld.
