YMMV / Kage

• Angst? What Angst?: Word of God says that Elyon is indeed suffering from PTSD or some related condition as a result of her brother’s betrayal.
• Moral Event Horizon: If Kur having shapeshifters burned at the stake isn't a clear crossing of it, doing the same to (by then 5 years old) Miranda's (human) parents and forcing her to watch does the trick.
• Rooting for the Empire: Many fans of the story have become more sympathetic towards the Knights of Vengeance than the Guardians or rebels. This must have been due to Jade's presence and the heroes' actions.
• Strawman Has a Point: Kur's rabid mistrust and hate of the Guards is understandable, when one considers that they were enemies for years, and they only switched sides during the Final Battle with Phobos.
