i agree with victor. in my world there are many faction, none represent 'good'
and none represent 'evil.' (i don't have an army of the undead either..
unfortunately).. i think the ideas of good and evil are more stagnant than just
a plain free for all of factions. (although i do have a protagonist and an
antagonist factions)
in my world, there is plenty of fighting to go around.. no one gets along. it
is a result of mutual mistrust of factions and competing interests, rather than
one group being intrinsically good and the other bad.
i think old lego tends to support this: black falcons and forestmen i think
were more of rivals/rebels to the dominant lions. recently lego has turned
decidely designating one group evil (such as the Fright Knights or Bulls) and
one group good (Knights kingdom/royal knights.. whom i see as one).. and i
think that is part of the juniorization of lego (a polarized world outlook).
