One that most probably msot already do would be stop orc extermination & recruit Impaler.

It is pretty clear that doing those two helps the Doom King - at the cost of potential "colleteral damage".

While there are some kind choices, most of the big ones are either ambugious - or the problematic ones are actually better.

I often read that many think Simon is a good guy, but he really really is not. He *tries* to be a good guy - and he resists the corruption of the shard- but I feel like the power he has, the chance to change the world, *does* actually corrupt him. He always fights for the greater good, but who defines the greater good? He is not beholden to religion or tradition. He *is* the only judge of his actions. And talks with Ginasta show that he can't let go - he will continue to follow his path until he is destroyed. The *good* will be created and uphold, no matter the sacrifices, and those who disagree can be ignored.

He is relentless and with way too much power than anyone should ever have. The Power he has is inherently problematic, but a man like he is will not be able to jsut lay it down. Thus his Path will lead to evil - The road to Hell is paved with good intentions after all.

P.S: I rambled a bit at the end, but my point stands: after looking at the choices once again, his path is already dark, he just clings to the greater good as a jsutification for them.
