Wasn't me. I think both Zahard Empire and FUG are bad guys.Honestly, I think you or another frequent poster on here was right when they said that FUG could end up being the good guys. It seems like SIU is trending that way and setting up the narrative that Zahard's empire and the 10 Families are worse. We haven't seen much of them but a lot of characters we have run into have had reasons to hate the 10 Families. Not all of them are warranted but it doesn't sound like their regime is good. I am sure this comes back to the path Baam has to walk and hwa ryun's comment about it being a new path.
I'm with @shaheer. I think Baam will end up forming his own group and those will be the good guys. Which will probably draw people from both sides and defeat both the Slayers and Zahard.
