"because of basic, universal principles of the value of life, the value of freedom, etc."
Basic universal rights in no way exist. Rights are given by pieces of paper enforced by government bodies. If we actually believed in universal rights we would be marching down Africa punishing everyone who has ever committed female genital mutilation, and sexual slavery would no longer exist. You think every human life matters because you were raised in a culture where every human life has that, this is not the case in the vast majority of human history let alone right now worldwide. You can be disgusted with what he did but universal rights in no way exist.
"Take this from someone who is almost a lawyer."
It makes far more sense where your silly basic, universal human rights line came from now. Definitely an "almost" alright.
This entire fantasy world is built on a medieval sense of government and serfdom, compounded by the fact that a universal concept of equality literally can't exist due to there being literally god's chosen running around, and a single individual that can at any moment destroy the entire world. To project silly modernist logic to the situation is retarded.
And to take this point even further, again, rights don't exist without a backing up of violence (fine, jail time, execution) by government bodies. With Noche being completely and utterly unstoppable by anyone he can not be punished for anything he's done. You can cry that it wasn't fair but fair only exists when pieces of paper says it exists.
If you want to argue about if it's morally right or wrong then don't mention being a lawyer as it is completely and utterly unrelated.
