Honour

Written by: Emancipated Dreamer, Kryvar Danial

Addressed to: Everyone


Simple philosophical note. Honour or a Code of Honour can be defined by
certain rules by which social intercourse is regulated among persons of
fashion, and which are founded on a regard to reputation. The main thing
to note here is the regulation part. Honour does not necessarily have to
subscribe to the "Good" interpretation of things. Upholding the Honour
of the 7 Truths of Evil is a valid argument that can easily be made.
Simply because you, nor I for that matter, subscribe to its tenants does
not invalidate it. In their own way the Infernals were upholding the
Honour of the values that their God has set forward to them. If what
they did repulses you and invokes strong emotions than you can bet they
are quite happy with themselves.
As for the posting of the log bit, I too found it a bit off. If you wish
to truely magnify your deeds why post them in such a cold and boring
light? Post it in story form. I'm sure it would be much shorter, you
could easily make it sound much more dramatic, and I'm sure tick even
more people off who get thoroughly disgusted by all of this. I think
Kaelin did it in this manner a few Sarapins ago and it came across much
darker than the simple posting of the log.

Penned by my hand on the 25th of Sarapin, in the year 294 AF.
