I, too, do not wish for them to be consumed by their hatred. It is my hope that teaching them logic and reasoning will temper their emotions, and as a natural consequence, dissuade them from revenge through crime and violence.
[ Revenge by other means though... well, they would have to be clever enough to get at LILITH, and if they were to pull it off successfully, at least it will have been done through wits.
It's unlikely they'll grow to be truly well-adjusted, but at least they won't be alone. They have each other. ]
Is that not the case for all of us? Even if I did not personally kill any villagers, I am still an accomplice. To the children, it may very well be the same as committing the deed myself.
