Why is Dominus bad?

This is an ARPG so storyline is not the main part but still: why are we supposed to kill Dominus and take Lady Dialla's side?

Let's dig for facts who is bad and who is good here.

Dominus:
1. He exiled 7 people to Wraeclast. From those 7 people most are criminals: witch murdered children and admits it, shadow is a professional killer, scion killed her husband, ranger is a thief, duelist killed a man, marauder obviously a criminal too ("Death is my brother. I do not fear him. I see him in the eyes of the men and beasts that I kill"). Only one of exiles seems to be mischarged - templar. But still his case is political because he is from the Templar Order so he must do something against government. So from 7 exiles 6 are really killers/thiefs/criminal scum and one is political. It's not so bad, actually it's very good and it is Dominus who it behind all this procedure. And about political prisoner - well has it ever existed a country without political prisoners? They always were, they are now and they will be ever.

2. When we meet Dominus he sais: "I exiled an animal now you look almost like a human". Isn't he right? This exile should be thankful to Dominus because he made a human from criminal scum.

3. Dominus searches for power and for "communion" but everybody always wants it so nothing bad.


Dialla:
1. What we know about her is mostly from her own words. The facts are: she admits she betrayed everybody. And the main fact is: every gembling became beast and all population was killed. We do not know who made this but isn't it obvious that she took a hand in this? She is the only one gembling that not transformed so she did all this, maybe in order to protect herself maybe not but we definitely do not know full truth about her and we can't consider her to be "good".

He's bad because he condones thaumaturgical experimentation on massive amounts of innocents, in the process performing a genocidal cleansing of Wraeclast which competes with the Holocaust for war crimes, all in an effort to transform himself into a lagomorphic demigod of blood and death.

Dominus is literally rabbit Hitler.
When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

Yeah but we dont know the exact reasons of why they did such things(exiles). Also Dominus killed so many ppl, just to become a "God"

Dominus is literally Hitler. (Godwin's Law invoked.)


This, and he has exiled way more than just the protagonists. The lore in the library sheds light on the gems and gemlings, and if you read the letters of exile, I remember some of them being for kinda minor offences. Although Kraityn's rap sheet is a hilariously good read!

I kinda see Dialla as almost a twisted Tyrael-like ally...I hope her part in the story continues to grow.
Statistics sais that 99% of prisoners consider themself innocent.

And btw all population half killed half turned into beasts - that's Diala's doing not Dominus'
