If your perspective on this is correct,
and something is about to happen to somebody who may or may not be
immortal,
and who may or may not be mortal, there are many good reasons why the
approacing genocide
could be averted.
If a mortal is taking the place of an immortal, it is still a mortal,
still a life, and there could be connections that are not understood.
If an immortal is taking the place of a mortal, there could be sound
reasons, not yet understood, that respect that.
When you've been in battle, it becomes part of your understanding that
the life of others (enemy) is forfeit.
When you've borne responsibility for the loss of a life, you would
never ever want that to happen to anybody you knew, or anybody you
didn't know, and sometimes there are no clear distiinctions. So the
default position is you respect life, whether it is in your way or
not, and see it as a challenge to find your way through problems/
difficulties, which as far as I am able to work out are based on some
kind of misunderstanding.
The opposite of life is not death, it is indifference to life,
particularly the life of others.
