In The Legend of Maxx, is June's desire to bring back the Hallow inherently selfish and also evil?
Long haired Tumblr Sexyman "it swings from side to side and drags on the floor when he walks" Xylan might be the official villain of LoM, but June's desire to destroy the demon's seal would damn the world of LoM an equally bad way.
In Comic 209, June states that the Hallow and Corruption were created equal, and meant to maintain balance in the world. The Naiad, seduced (😳) by the power of the Corruption, turned against the other elemental races and sought to cover the entire world in Corruption. The Dryad turned to the Hallow and used it as their source of power in the fight, and neither side could defeat the other, as both sources of power were equal, yet opposite.
In Terraria lore, the Corruption is a cancerous sickness caused by the sins of those living in the world. The Hallow, on the other hand, is described as a "overcompensation of purity, taken to the absolute extreme." It destroys anything in its path, and it an absolute pain in the ass for newly Hardmode players. It is also of note that both the Hallow and the Corruption (as well as the Crimson but that's not relevant) spread with the goal of achieving balance in the world.
In Comic 210, June continues saying that Xyvareth used a demon's curse to seal away the Hallow, yet it took the Corruption with it, which would have left the world in a state of true balance had the corruption not managed to escape the demon's seal.
Both Hallow and Corruption wish to ensnare the world in a monotonous hellscape it deems a utopia. Both of them have self-centered ideas of what is right and wrong, and either of them in total power would kill everything for the sake of equality. Why would June wish to bring back both of these biomes for the sake of balance, when she could try to destroy both and achieve that in a better way?
Could it be that Xylan was right when he said that the Dryad don't care about the Earth, only about keeping it the way they like it? June has probably killed an equal or greater amount of people as Xane, the only thing that makes her "good" is that her goals line up with that of the protagonist. She also states that she hates both the Naiad and their culture, so could it just be that she hates them because they are opposites?
