: Besides, Connacht didn't kill their race directly, he

I'm sure he just thouaht that they'd live in thier own happy world with a peaceful and joful civilisation, and not starve to death.
The Bre'Unor are a threat to the safety of the free cities of the North, the easiest way to get rid of the threat is to kill it off, and get the aid of powerful archers in the process.
Thats the thing about Myth, unlike other fantasies like LOTR their are no pure evil or good people. THe Myrkridia aren't evil, wolves bears, lions, sharks, eat people, are they evil? Evil is hard to define. In myth there is no Black and White, just shades of Grey. I've always liked that, the bad guys aren't or weren't entirely bad, and the good guys do what the have to survive, its the blurred line that sets Myth out above other fantasies.
