Is there anything wrong with killing thugs in Caspian who hold slaves?

The slaves are scared, does that mean something?
Am I getting the bad ending for killing the thugs who are holding them as slaves?

After I killed some of them the slaves went into panic mode.

The slaves are probably scared because 1. you're killing their masters and 2. there are bullets flying around. As for the thugs, they deserve a bullet.

Hello my friendly Steam neighbour Cuss, Always to the rescue. <3

So is it bad that they are in panic mode?

Btw, I didn't kill all of the thugs, I've knocked some unconcious and as for those I've killed, I tried to do it as fast and silent as I could.

G'day mate. Some people panic and some don't. I wouldn't worry, they'll get over it.
There are two slave / thug locations where you can rescue the slaves and earn karma.
They require you to neutralise the thugs so that the slaves are free to leave. Subdue, kill or force them to surrender are basically the same for these two jobs. Note, one of those locations has two levers you need to use to release the slaves from their cages.

I've seen no cages on the location I've found slaves in. It was a shipreck they were working on.

Yep, that's the workship on the way to the lighthouse. You'll find the other later.

So isn't there supposed to be a lever here to pull?

First off, please excuse me and my big mouth, I should have said nothing.
Next, there's no lever at the workship so by deductive reasoning you already know to expect one later. My apologies for that. You'll work it out mate. Good luck.

There's nothing to apologise for mate. No worries.
