@thicknick76 yes i have read your reasoning which is why I am also stating my reasons as to why your reasons are not making any sense 
1. The first thing that you stated was that hunting humans is barbaric which i agree with but saying that for these type of people is completely incorrect 
2.your second statement is that since the fl is from this world she should not be admiring this forgive me but to me it seems like you are sympathizing with criminals which you would not be doing if those ruthless dictators like hitler stalin etc were still alive 
3. Your next statement is "Regardless I'm speaking more to the author, who seems to be pushing this as morally acceptable" pardon me but in no way, shape or form is it depicted that the author is pushing human hunting as morally acceptable just because she depicted that the fl who is from our world admires this does not mean that everyone should do so too 
4.this one's a question for you have you ever met a victim of ra** have you ever talked to them or have you at the very least read or watched a interview of a victim the emotional trauma and the physical abuse they go through is far far far more worse than what is happening to these people not to mention the look of contempt or the disrespect these victims get when it is not even their fault
And even after reading and thinking about this you still sympathize with thes type of people my child i am honestly not even disappointed but worried about you because you are either to kind, naive or ignorant obout how this world is

@I am a sinner  1. Where is the line for acceptable vs. Unacceptable? I would say that starts and ends with "human". When it becomes less than that it starts to show the intentions of the *hunters* not the prey.
 
2. The prey's worthiness as prey is irrelevant to my condemnation of the hunters.
 
3. The fact that there are posts that are cheering on this behavior, tells me otherwise. I'm not claiming the author is literally trying to garner support to make this as a new law, but they way they it is portrayed is obviously as if it is a morally acceptable if not morally superior to do.
 
4. I am engaged to one. I know secondhand how awful it is. And fvck you for thinking I cannot have empathy for others because of what I've said. You know nothing about me, and I know nothing of you.
 
As to your final point, i want to say 2 things:
1. The prisoners were given a non-choice. They could try to run away from being hunted, and have a chance to get away with their freedom. Or they could apologize. But the problem is that it's not just an apology (which would make this a teeny bit more acceptable, I'll admit). But no, the apology will be met with punishment that is hinting at being ruthless and humiliating and otherwise very unpleasant. That's not a choice, that's bribing them to become prey less they feel your wrath.
 
2. I've seen this situation used often in fiction. Human hunters are using human (or elves/humanoids) captives to hunt for sport. 
 
You know what is awfully consistent in those stories? Who the bad guys are.

Now, unless you have something new, I'm tired of writing about this. Continue to downvote, cope and seeth but just know, I don't care what others think. This is fiction, and none of this will affect your, mine or anyone else's daily lives.
