The First Barbarian Slave: When Truth Meets Falsehood

The example of truth and falsehood is like the example of gold and gold plated; one appears to be like the other but under certain circumstances only one resists corrosion.

Those who oppose the gods of the "accepted society" were considered barbarous. Such a thought only gives birth to tyrannical ideologies. After the Four Moon War, the Makeneans became the property of the Golden Race Army and all religious books were burnt. Freedom became a myth for all but a few.

Rofurmer, the last rightful king, patiently waits for the bright star in the north to reach a spear’s height from the horizon. Clinging on to what may seem to be an illusion, he hopes that the army would honour their truce. Is he a fool to trust a race that has no moral compass? What would you say to a man who chooses falsehood over truth? — Or a man who would rather befriend an enemy than accept defeat? Nevertheless, drowning men always clutch onto straws.
