Summary: "A fine justification. I've heard it so
many times before" were the words Nicky spoke, and
they were words he had heard so many times. From
Kings claiming that the world would be better if
they ruled to murders justifying the mass slaughter
of people, evil will use the concept of the greater
good as justification for their own horrific
actions. While The Old Guard had seen that play
out throughout history, this wasn't even the first
time someone justified hurting them in the name of
the greater good.[5 times someone used changing the
world or the greater good as a justification to
hurt The Old Guard]

Summary: It doesn't matter how old you are; one
of the most human traits is how difficult some
conversations are to have. There have been many
massive changes for the immortals, and this is a
time when they'll have to use their words, not
their weapons.[6 difficult conversations The
Old Guard were avoiding and 1 that required no
words at all]
