<p><strong>Law as Moral Ideal</strong></p> <p><strong>Law as Moral Ideal</strong></p>
<p><strong>The True</strong> represents law not as structure, but as <i>virtue</i> — the moral ideal. He is duty, justice, righteousness, and integrity, unshaken by doubt and unmoved by compromise. He does not bind by written law, but by the soul's own compass — the deep, personal sense of what is right, even at great personal cost. These are the ideals of the brave, the driven, and the stubbornly principled.</p> <p><strong>The True</strong> represents law not as structure, but as <i>virtue</i> — the moral ideal.

<p>Yet the True is a double-edged sword — for virtue is not measured by goodness, but by conviction. It is not what <i>is</i> right, but what one <i>believes</i> to be right. And that belief, held with enough certainty, can justify anything. Tyrants, inquisitors, and zealots have all drawn on his light in the name of their own truths. So long as a cause is pursued with loyalty, courage, and moral clarity, it falls under his gaze — no matter how noble or catastrophic its ends.</p> <p>Yet the True is a double-edged sword — for virtue is not measured by goodness, but by conviction.

<p>A world under the True is a world of endless crusades. Every wrong is met with swift correction. Every impure thought immediately confronted. Every transgressor punished in the name of virtue. An eternal cycle of conflict between all who claim to be right — and an endless pursuit of unachievable purity.</p> <p>A world under the True is a world of endless crusades.
