I'm sorry, I don't think you read what I wrote. For starters, Ulthur never ever saw a Sylvan doing evil. I'll expand that to "never heard about it" either. The only thing that might count as hearing about bad things Sylvans were doing was the Sylvan-Warlock war, and Ulthur was very involved in trying to work that out. I wont go into more detail about it, since it's still on-going. ...EVERY time in Ulthur's life that he needed aid against evil ones, or liches, or scions, or whatever, the Sylvans would come help him without question. I think that should make it pretty clear, too. Several times I found three evils ranking on elite storm giants in Kiadana, and different Sylvans were happy to come help me with them. If the Scion had the Hammer, the Sylvans were happy to come help me get it back. If we were being raided, the Sylvan came to help defend, every time. Ofcourse I did the same for them.

I really think that 'my character disn't know!' is a poor excuse. I'll flat out disagree with you there. It's a very good excuse not to act on something, if your character doesn't know about it.

marans, and especially paladins is a very, very orderly structures. Paladin's code of honor built on the civilization and morale, which sylvans stands against. Many, many Maran are chaotic, very few are orderly. Ulthur himself had a neutral ethos. Some things he was very orderly about, other things he wasn't. He was also a very bad criminal, as far as a Tribunal would be concerned. Honor has nothing what-so-ever to do with civilization, and I have no idea how you make the conclusion that Sylvans are against morale.
