It's a bit tasteless, I have to agree. You have to stick with the theme you set up one way or another, or the game's going to end up a mess of completely different themes with no red line to unify them all.
How do you fix a bunch of burning pigs running about? I don't think just making them lie about and screaming in agony is going to help all that much. Maybe they managed to find a way to completely block out the pain after a while, being accomplished wizards on their own? Maybe they've accustomed to their lives as pigs, but can't find a proper farm because they're *ahem* on fire?
They wouldn't be all that bummed about the immortality either, of course. One possible way to fix it would be to involve these pigs with the story a bit more seriously. Not just have them act as slightly more interesting environment props. I mean these guys are *old*! They MUST know something that would help in the main plot.
