"As I strolled throughout the city, by chance,……" — Daegus (43rd King Of Atlantis)
"As I strolled throughout the city, by chance, I alighted upon a military barracks. As I watched, the young cadets were beign trained the use of diplomacy in combat. Better they learn to speak first than kill first. As I watched, one young boy (no older than 13 I might add) refused to cooperate with the older boys. When at last he was disciplined, he was forced to explain himself. I am a Child of God, he said, and when God ordains me to speak for him, I will. When God chooses me to take another's life, though, it will be by his will and not the will of mortal triviality. I believe that boy proved to be a far greater man than the other cadets. He, at least, was true to God."
