is it really sacrificing them if you're gonna resurrect them afterwards? its not much worse than being unconscious, and for all they know if they lose they're all going to die, so it makes perfect sense to not worry unduly about your companions dying.
well, at the very least the hero doesn't seem like the one dimensional asshole that usually shows up in this sort of story. still kind of a dick, but more bumbling and easily manipulated than malicious.
well that was stupid, and utterly uncompelling. i'd say it belonged on r/im14andthisisdeep, but half the stuff on there is higher effort than this dreck.
