Line 4:

* Xande's [[Start of Darkness]]. You've spent your {{spoiler|immortal}} life apprenticed to a master wizard - no doubt making close friends with the other two apprentices, by the way - and what is your reward for this dedication? {{spoiler|One gets phenomenal cosmic powers, and an entire continent, the other becomes the ruler of the world of dreams, and you get... mortality.}} And they call you evil when you want to keep things the way they were? Xande got painted into the villain corner, plain and simple.

*** Not before {{spoiler|Doga and Unei essentially arranged for ''their'' deaths}}. What's Xande going to think when/if he finds that, essentially, {{spoiler|Doga and Unei [[Who Wants to Live Forever?|envied]] ''[[Cursed ~~With~~ Awesome|his]]'' [[Death Seeker|mortality]]}}?

*** Not before {{spoiler|Doga and Unei essentially arranged for ''their'' deaths}}. What's Xande going to think when/if he finds that, essentially, {{spoiler|Doga and Unei [[Who Wants to Live Forever?|envied]] ''[[Cursed with Awesome|his]]'' [[Death Seeker|mortality]]}}?

* How about {{spoiler|King Gorn's death?}} For weeks, he's been [[Brainwashed and Crazy|mind-controlled]] by his [[Evil Chancellor]] to set his soldiers against each other and to banish his ten-year-old son Alus from the castle. And the final act in Gigameth's plan? Have Gorn murder Alus in his bed--but the order is too much, and Gorn {{spoiler|turns the knife on himself to save his son.}}

** Doubles as a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] to [[Tropers/Judasmartel|me]]. It takes [[Determinator|sheer force of will]] and [[Power of Love]] to overcome a powerful spell like that.
