I think the idea is that while hemalurgy itself is evil (tearing apart someones soul and killing them is pretty bad), the use of the spike afterwards is the morally neutral part. The deed is done, the evil is committed, the use of the spike is not inherently evil at that point. That said, hemalurgy I think comprises both those parts, so it's certainly arguable. I suspect he meant it's no more evil than Allomancy or Feruchemy, it's a tool. However, it's hard to imagine using it and not killing someone/shredding their soul, so who knows. Maybe if they consent?

So, I'm trying to create a font using the guide in this thread, but I'm finding it exceptionally irritating, mostly because the program I'm using, FontForge, is incredibly un-intuitive (to me, this is the first time I've tried something like this). Given that I have no ability/desire to drop hundreds of dollars on a font program, does anyone have any suggestions?
