Paris had ventured out of his little room, which he mostly stayed in hoping that eventually there'd be something useful for him to do, to the public areas. He'd found a device with a lot of electronic books on it, including The Count of Monte Cristo. Exodus was quite fond of the book: brilliant victim emerges from his confinement to safeguard his people, take on loyal associates, and wreak justice against his enemies. A fine story. The only part he didn't like was where the Count makes a tragic mistake. It made him uncomfortable. Grand quests for justice shouldn't have tragic mistakes in them. They just shouldn't. One should just be able to enjoy the villains getting what was coming to them, and not worry about unforeseen consequences.
