Also let me put this out there. Ultear's decision goes beyond just simple good and evil. If it were me, I would do the same thing if it would prevent chaos but I suppose I would do that only if I don't have an alternative.

I like scenarios where the bad/person in question guy is allowed to leave/live but gets killed shortly after. It adds more of a dramatic feel to it.
