In Genesis 4:15- Why, why did God protect Cain?

Surely Adam and Eve had loads of kids by this point, so why would God protect a murderer?

Gen 4:15 (NASB) So the Lord said to him, “Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” And the Lord appointed a sign for Cain, so that no one finding him would slay him.
