[The problem is that each has a very different definition of honor, and a different threshold for probable cause.]
Show me the man whose shield is broad enough that behind it the people of all races can crouch. Moreover, the Dakal are dead and their bodies lie beneath the enormous pall of the sea. What more would you have me do for them, but retrieve their bones that they may be granted proper burial? They wielded malice for Nalanni and sought to desecrate her volcano, and so they answered to her divine temper: for their misfortune they have naught to blame but their swollen pride.
However, you are mistaken if you believe that idle shall my spear stay. Pomarr must not be allowed to raise her race from the shadows of the underworld, whose entrance their miserable shades clog. Such an act defies the gods and Fate itself - it defies the very cycles to which the earth must submit. Their return bodes ill for the Nalawi too, who hold the Dakal in mutual enmity. These are the weak to whom I shall lend my strength.
