 #WordWeavers 7.9. Why did your villain become a villain?

I wrote a short monologue by Balor here some time ago here as a character study to examine his motives: https://text.tchncs.de/marcr/the-antagonists-monologue

As for <name placeholder>, his main reason was a loss of trust in the dragons, their role as "overseers", and society as a whole. He became fanatical about overthrowing this system and ending the pact between dragons and humans, willingly accepting the dire consequences of doing so. 
 @bc602e9a Interesting monologue. Honestly, I'd be pissed after 700 of some miserable state without any help, too 😅
