>Judging medieval style of life by moders norms.

Peoples got 10-15 kids back than, cuz death rate was 60-80% approx

Life is tough, death is accepted. If you play baron Ciri part, you know, that peasants send their childs there, cause they got nothing to eat. Tough times, tough decisions. It's 'You die horribly together by starving'  or 'you leave one behind and try to not give up on living'

Basically, every "save orphans" clan is forgetting about BUNCH of childs in DownWaren. Not to mention matures too.

Try to learn anything about medieval age. S**t was brutal. People sended their childs to woods to die so rest of the family can survive and let their other kids have a chance.

Slavic copy of Santa byt the name of Grandpa Frost (Ded Moroz) was a forest spirit. He got blue robe (icy, cold color). Was his sack full of gifts? Nah, he got child bones there. He had no elft, but there were Snow-maiden with him. Novadays he is pictured like sexy frost chick. Back than it was just trapped spirit of girl, frozen to death. And you know what? Folks left their childs in woods. Two sided story: 1.They left em there, so they wouldnt starve (winter was tough times). 2. They will leave em as preys for that spirit, so he would keep wolfs away (fail is - bodies made em coming)

tl;dr:

You kill Gran, Baron, Bunch of folks with their kids (and most of kids just as innocent as orphans) to save 5 kids, whom you barely know.

Talking about bigger evil, eh?

p.s.
