Daniel too. It doesn't matter what his original intention was, he tortured people for Alexander, blindly accepting his word on their guilt. In fact, he continued torturing them even after he found out that they were innocent and only decided it was wrong because killing a little girl was still a shock to him. Alexander may have made him a monster, but he was still a monster in the end.
Yeah..I agree with you whole-heartedly. Was Alexander desperate? Yes, but so was Daniel. Neither is a good excuse. And those who quote "Good and evil, such comforting concepts, but hardly applicable," just because Alexander claims to not be evil doesn't prove he is not... Not everyone (especially with shady intentions) can be trusted to be forthcoming on their word. Alexander messed with Daniel's head once...you don't think it possible that he was simply trying to do the same thing again? Trying to do anything to plant a seed of doubt in Daniel's head so that he may not stop Alexander?
