He does though. Now, Zenos doesn't pull a sudden 180 and become a good boy who values life and peace and justice etc. But those words from Alisae do influence him. It's why, instead of going down his path of trying to **** off the WOL and stoke their fury to fight him...he helps us. He makes a deal with Krile, he comes to our aid. And then, AFTER he helps us save the universe, politely ASKS us to fight him, saying that he won't force the issue if we decline.
