Fragment from "A Treatise on Justice" by Master Roven
(circa 600 Years before the Cataclysm)
Where does Justice lie? In the heart of the magistrate? In the verdict wrought? Borne on the rod? Retained in the brig? In the wind that blows the gallows rope?
Who are we to judge the heart of the guilty? When does Justice become Vengeance?
We must become servants to Justice. We must seek [Her?] to the very core. [We must?] remain detached from the suffering of the victims, lest we be torn by their desire for vengeance...
...To do less is a disservice to them...
