Or of course they could use your mod and get special Kingdom bindings for all their shards.

Did the devs ever tell us if this (no Life demons) was intentional or not?

As I write 'Life demons' I suddenly get the feeling it is intentional:)

Did you ever read the flavor text for the bound elementals?

This is from description for the Burning Wraith:

Doesn't sound like something that "good" factions should be doing.

My mod does include the life versions of the Kingdom bindings and I change the flavor texts as such. I wouldn't think this is a high priority item on their list to do. I like to have things complete with respect to these items, also the reason why I set up death versions of henchmen as well because the empire shouldn't be using life things.

You can see all of my mods here. And children of the storm is something that changes the entire flavor of the game. So, if you want a completely different experience with more fantasy stuff. So, for a new player it would be a fun experience, but it runs the risk of being too much fun for users and they cannot play the game without it

Best choice is to experiment with FE:LH. I tend to play only the base game without mods.
