With what I said in mind, Their aims for peace must be rather high then. |

So Tribal ! The injustices ! When will they ever be like us ?
We Remain True. If you had one of the most advanced civilizations, you would be masters and they would be slaves.
A natural disaster followed by an invasion kinda stopped that.... |

Perhaps you've evolved beyond that point now (although Havohej would suggest that you are certainly capable of devolving back in that direction) but you certainly have the concepts within your culture - even before the Amarr could have put them there. Leave me out of this, unless you want me to join Pyre and bring my slaves with me.
Please don't....... I think? I don't know which would be worse / funnier.... some mix of both maybe?

Also, I eat neut Dominix fleets for breakfast. It's RR Dominix fleets that are my bane. You make sure your boss remembers that, should we ever find ourselves on opposite sites of the same battlefield.
I meant the minmatar militia, and uh, OK I'll relay that message I guess? Didn't really know there was bad blood, or much of any of it for that matter (I try not to ask too many questions honestly). |

Please make any explanations or what not a private matter if you so wish... Honestly I don't want to be caught in the middle of anything though. |

Seeing as it doesn't look like anyone's really said anything on it...
Thanks for the second installment! I've heard the "war of the flea" term somewhere before, don't recall where. I, like with the first installment, really enjoyed reading this and look forward to the next. I also found the section on the effects of moral really intreating. The whole thing in general gave me plenty of food for thought. Thanks!

This really was a great idea for your anniversary, I hope it does spread a bit more understanding for your cause and such. |

Of course, she doesn't belong in the Republic either much the same as me and most other freed slaves, but I think you'd be surprised to see how much of what you take at face value is a mask she and others try really hard to pretend is the real face.
Even to themselves.
What goes on behind a mask is not relevant. Actions are what matter.
What about when this mask forces your hand to do those actions that you, behind the mask wouldn't? What about when the separation from this mask worn doesn't really exist and all you are is what others make you out to be? Yes everybody wears a public face but without ever feeling the ability to remove said mask is achievable, that just isn't healthy. |

Yes everybody wears a public face but without ever feeling the ability to remove said mask is achievable, that just isn't healthy. That's what kirjuunen, suuolen and family are for. Masks aren't supposed to be removed in public - unless to reveal another mask. Veikitamo always told me that and I believe she was wise in this respect. When you show something of yourself in public you cease to own it and it becomes common property.
What about not being able to remove these masks around them? I'm not really going to argue about in public, that to say the least is understandable. |

That's more less the point I was trying to make. The mask does have to come off at some point. That on top of You really shouldn't compromise your own true nature to hold the fascad the make you wear shrouds you in. |

His slaves are Amarrians he bought off a Thukker caravan if I'm not mistaken. He's not a holder and there's nothing religious about their servitude. I could be wrong on my understanding of his "arrangement" but I don't think they would be too keen on him retaining them after joining |

Sorry if I'm understanding this wrong, but they would stay as slaves for being enslaved by a non Amarrian? If so that's kinda dark! Would it be some kind of reteaching thing or? |

Humouring or not, I kinda like hearing about the other side from them...... can only fight for so long without at least wondering a little about what makes them tick. Not to mention its not like others won't chime in... |

Say what you will about DK, but the only time we crossed paths she was at least respectable to me (though I really expected to be called a filthy minmatar or something along those lines)...... don't really want to go into the details...... there's reports out there..... |
