He shakes his head slowly and permits a wry smile, mahogan eyes appearing almost ebon as scorn sparks withen them.

#It would do no good suggesting such a thing. All it would accomplish is getting them even more ill-tempered than they already are. There are too many sides to consider... It would take time to hear all sides as well as patience and willingness to at least think about change. And none of them have any of that. It might work if the people wanted the change, but few do. Most are either happy with their lives or too scared to contradict the authority. And those that are brave enough to stand up are few and are easily crushed.#

#A kind purpose? My dear Arwin, it is never for a kind purpose that I am sent anywhere. I am the back alley man for my 'leader' you could say. I do the dirty work while he gets away scot-free. You would be surprised what all I have gotten into for his sake.#

#Ironic, isn't it? Here I am admiting how fed-up with my goverment, yet dispite it all I still put my life on the line for it without a second thought. Quite easily I could put myself into an obviously fatal situation for a system I do not even believe in. Sometimes I wonder if I am overly loyal or just plain crazy.#
