Role

Chapter 4

Zxctikazxcti recently had a bit of a debate with Aranir about Justice.
Aranir pressed the notion that Justice can be subjective in many cases.
Zxctikazxcti disagreed, stating that she had seen countless people who
made justice out of vengeance or out of dogma. By her reckoning, true
justice was always righteous. They agreed to disagree.

During her initiation into squirehood, Zxctikazxcti was given a scenario.
It was a challenging situation, one which even the Captain agreed had
no immediate right or wrong answer. It was completely situational.
It was a catastrophic event wherein a fellow squire is in mortal danger
at the same time as a non-combatant of the light. Who would she save?

At this moment, her mind was flooded with many possibilities. If she were
the squire on the receiving end, she would want that other squire to save
the innocent person. This is because all squires are oath sworn to give
their lives for this very cause.

Nonetheless, Zxctikazxcti was greatly concerned to realize that she would
likely be facing many such decisions in the future. Now more than ever, she
saw the growing need for wisdom, even for a squire. Especially for a squire.

Captain Vlijerous seems to have great confidence in her and the fact that
he is a cousin gives her a certain comfort around him. A daughter of the
seven devout mothers, Zxctikazxcti almost sees him as a father figure,
despite the fact that he is not much older than she.
