- I am trying to set it up so there always be some areas where my players will find antagonists
You will find a good way in the quote I've provided. Antagonists are not necessarily those opposing the protagonists: they may be chasing after one thing - be it wealth, admiration of one person or the public, perfection in an art or anything else - and, in the process, damage another that the protagonist values greatly.
The antagonists seek whatever it is they seek for the same reason that the protagonist might wish to deny them that: because they believe it, with their whole heart, to be the right thing to do.
