Why are the Israidians called 'demons', and are they really all evil?

The races of Calamia call the Israidians demons because of their appearance. Given that they had never seen their kind before, and the war of Daishevar, the races of Calamia refer to them as a 'demon', much like'd call something strange 'alien'. The Israidians hate this terminology, as well as the humans slang name, Ishtar (which translates to Dark Abyss), for their home world Israidius. As most people will say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Good and evil are much the same. What is good? What is evil? The Israidians are a people too; they have families, goals, beliefs, religion, hopes, pride, and yes even values and honor. Just as the people of Calamia view that their own ideals are important, so do the Israidians. Not everything is black and white; there are shades of gray when it comes to both realms.
