Line 8:
This can be a philosophical struggle where [[Lawful Good]] and [[For Great Justice]] stand against the forces of [[Chaotic Good]] and [[For Happiness]]. In this case, the conflict is between a [[Hero Protagonist]] and a [[Hero Antagonist]]. It can also be when unambiguously good characters find themselves on different sides of a [[Grey and Grey Morality]] conflict. In either case, they are often reluctant to fight each other but can have a hard time understanding each other's point.
This trope is closely related to [[White and Grey Morality]], but when that trope is played completely straight there can be no conflict beyond mere misunderstandings.
Compare with [[Both Sides Have a Point]], [[Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters]] and [[Utopia Justifies the Means]]. Contrast to [[Black and White Morality]] and [[Evil Versus Evil]]. Might end in a [[Downer Ending]], often with one ultimate message, that [[An Aesop|when the Forces of Good fight, the only victor is Evil.]]
