I turn on this device, I hear many angry voices. We are all angry, and sad, and upset. This boat, it has many problems

Doesn't work for everything.

No, of course not. It isn't a perfect system, by any means, and torches leave flickers. But it is better than stumbling in complete shadow, yes?

[ttlynotawizard]

This is true. What are you thinking of?

Well, I think there are a few basic human principles that most people will agree on. Murder, rape, stealing, most people could say that they think those are not good. Then we would need a system, of course, to keep them from not happening. What could we do? In At-lantis, sometimes you have your hands tied behind your back for days, when you pick a pocket?

You'll find people on board who enjoy all three, sad to say. The system of rules the ship has in place imprisons the offender for a few days in the case of rape and murder. And I feel it does nothing to deter. Stealing I've yet to see punished but I am highly amused by the thought of hands tied behind one's back.

I'm simply unsure of what we could get away with without getting punished...

Well....not entirely, but I trust you to keep that between us.

It's a very effective punishment! Because then you can see who is not trusting, yes, and also they can't use their hands.

We should try it. Tie my hands together!

...you know something, friend Remy?

Tie your...but then how will people trust you? Or are you simply experimenting?

It's not uncommon knowledge that Erol was locked in a cage for quite a while.
