I have a bad feeling that things killed by Stalkers in the, err, condition they cause to the town aren't exactly living it up even if they deserved it. No evidence, but I have a bad hunch on that much. It's some insidious ritual conducted by what is probably some hellish afterlife, and knowing how that works there's good odds that they'll enjoy kicking as many dogs as possible in the process-condemning every soul killed to the Abyss would be a pretty good start.
Let us not assume that this will actually be easy to assemble this time, either. We got very lucky with the Sin Purge ritual last time; it was relatively simple, nice strong stuff we worked with, and we managed to get everything together before we even figured out all the Stalkers to the hundred percent so it was also more practical. I doubt either will be the case this time, and if we go too hard for it we may tip off the Stalkers what we're up to, which will make them destroy as much of it as possible, which will make this extremely hard. In other words, we may have to take killing more seriously than before.
Though, I can see the appeal to that. Especially since you don't have to deal with their ugly hole-eye faces again. I can safely say that the forces of the Abyss do love their ability to suddenly lack eyes to spook someone.
Though, that is a good point, on the Restraint thingy. In theory. not in practice, we don't have that many people to restrain all the Stalkers, and there's no telling if just repetitively capturing them would do us any good more than harm; after all, they're here to figure out how they failed, and if they realized Emissaries like us were involved, well, that'd be bad. It'd be a hell of a lot easier for them if they had an inkling of an idea regarding that person who keeps repetitively kidnapping them and restraining them in the night hours... Remember, they did have a way of somehow knowing who we really were before, if we directly confronted them. Or at least Epitath did.

We have some very violent folks around this run... I don't like it.
On the bright side, I guess there will always be some volunteers to do the dirty work that aren't me.
