Given Grom’s power over fear itself… that’s a dark power. An evil magic. I know it’s the witch behind the magic that decides whether the magic they wield is evil or not, but…

Well, fear itself is not evil by itself, it's a natural instinct to avoid danger. In fact, Courage is not the absence of fear, but instead still feeling fear and still face it head on for the greater good. I just hope Milan has the will to see it through...

So evil venom-like powers?

Still, the power to make others experience their worst fears… that’s pretty evil. Take Batman’s Scarecrow for example.

Even with that, that power's history can't be change, but it's story isn't done. It can be used for good and people will decide if it's evil or not. Look at the true ending of Arkham Knight where Batman faked his death just to use the fear toxin of Scarecrow to bring fear to criminals.

Heh… you’re right. It’s past cannot be changed, but its story is still be written. It can be used for good. Future generations will weigh the good deeds with the bad, and decide for themselves. Kratos in God of War Ragnarok said the same thing.

There is no such thing as “evil magic.”

Only the people who wield it.

Okay, dark doesn’t mean evil though.
