'nature, life, existence is stable. it follows sometime observable sometime invisible yet rational rules that seeks to binds us in an inextricable equilibrium. the weak fall to the mighty, the meek to the violent, the prey to the predator and through this a fragile balance is preserved.
i say fragile because intelligent life has always thought to derive from this natural order, to preserve themselves, to seek an edge over muscle and sinews it armed itself, brought tools and weapons into play.
our martial arts are unfair, our mastery of weapons if an artifice nothing short of cheating because nature is fair, simple, predictable and is the base upon which we found our judgement. you will find no honor in our ways, nor glory, nor moral hill on which to stand, but in it you will gain the agency to decide in nature's stead whether you'll live and those you protect, the values you defend, the people you safeguard will endure.
for that purpose you must recoil before no trick, no trap or illusion, because debates on morality are the privilege of the living and for as long as we hold these artifices in our hands we will live on.'
