Killing was common place but only to prevent the deaths of others (or often ourselves). My characters were often stereotyped as being very much like HE-MAN from the cartoon of the same name.Our experience of Dark Fantasy was very much along the lines of the Michael Moorcock books (which are also termed High Fantasy depending on which argument they feature in!).What I'm saying is that yes it would appear that experiences like yours happen but are certainly not my experience and I hope are FAR from the norm.</blockquote>
