It is wrong to kill a man.

Or is it? What if that man has killed another?

Is it wrong then?

If yes, then what if he has killed two others?

Or three? How many shall die at his hand before we can put him to death with a clear conscience?

It is wrong to steal.

But is it wrong for a poor man to thieve bread from a rich man who stores loaves in abundance? How empty must the thief's belly be before we forgive him his crime? How full must the rich man's granary be?

There can never be one law that answers the question of what is right and what is wrong.

There is only a river of justice, steered by the impulses of men and women, Gods and Goddesses, chance and nature.

'The gods guide our every twitch and twirl,'

the devout tell us. Yet they also tell us that the Gods themselves are guided by the Tapestry of Time, where all of existence is written in the most indelible of links. Are we to believe that who we love, what we speak, and where we journey is determined by an unknown hand, and policed by unknown enforcers?

Impossible. Within this universe we inhabit, where fruit falls from its tree to the ground and not into the skies; where the sun lights the days and the moon our nights; In that place, we are free to act of our own will wherever the laws of the wind and thunder allow it.
