It's probably for the better. My father... he was very opposed to violence. He avoided fighting whenever he could, and never wanted me to even touch any kind of weapon. I don't think he would have been happy if I took someone's life and was... rewarded with remembering something for it.
That's something to keep close to your heart. To take another's life for whatever reason is a heavy burden. Even if one is rewarded for it, it doesn't really justify it, right? There is no good price for murder. And I'm sure your father would agree with that.
...there might be times when you don't have any other choice, but... I think anyone who takes a life will carry the weight of that life with them forever.
