It's one of 'those' stories. Protagonist is a Sith Pureblood. The author sets up as many encounters as possible so that the MC's alignment is always Greyish Light rather than anything remotely dark. This includes masters with penchant for indoctrination, to moralistic apprentices. All the philosophical conflict is useless as the 'small smidgen of Light' will only grow stronger by the author's machination. It may not make sense characterisation wise, but forceful plot development has never cared.
