It's a theological debate. Everyone agrees that the Bastard, the fifth god, inherited control over demons from his father, who was redeemed by a saint of the Mother. Quintarians see that as making them... well, neutral, as the Bastard is god of, among other things, whatever does not fit, including 'disasters out of season'. Quadrenes see the Bastard as not a legitimate god, and they kill sorcerers. And saints and divines sworn to the Bastard.

[And Penric is not going to think about that, because those deaths tends to be grisly.]

Not bad demons, or no more than there are bad humans. Both of us are products of our experiences.
