[Oh, what Morgana had done was terrible. Emet-Selch wouldn't even begin to deny it, and were anyone he cared for treated to the cruelties she'd inflicted, his feelings would be rather different (but then, elevated as he was, the Ascian taking the lives of any of these mortals didn't exactly qualify as any kind of moral quandary). But her actions were hardly unique. And replying to violence with more violence only fostered a propagation of it.
But then, in a situation like this that he cares little for, it's an easy position for him to take.]
I doubt much compares to the 'fun' of necromancy.
[Said with a dry, idle lilt.]
But if one were so set on her demise... there's nothing that says an initial capture and study requires her survival in the long term. If one wished to be practical, [And to be particularly cruel.] she could be contained, stripped of information and strength- and only once drained of all use, summarily killed.
There will be other monsters- and I don't mean the furred and clawed variety. The more knowledge we have of the powers one like her might seek, the more might be used to prevent further cruelties later on. [Or who knows, it might come in handy just in general.] But 'tis a solution I fear would please neither party.
