Why is it that people only appeal to tradition in order to justify something that is so clearly wrong?
Traditions exist to preserve the stability of the Compact, they say. The end of Thralldom will spell ruin for the Compact, they say. Elevating new houses to the peerage disrupts the stability of the Compact, they say.
Does not Skald teach us the importance of choice? Does not Limerance teach us the power of oaths? Does not Lagoma teach us the importance of change for the better?
I am so tired of the small-mindedness of those who would appeal to traditions in order to ease their shame at the immorality of their path to wealth and power.
