[inexorablejudgment]

I have a question to pose... and do take your time in considering your response. It is of no worldly importance, but I feel such a question demands more than a cursory answer.

What does the term 'Justice' mean to you?

[A beat.]

Not the word alone, but the concept itself. The land I hail from names itself the Nation of Justice, and I have been the one charged with carrying out the law of that nation for some time. I have always considered the application of the law to be absolute regardless of my own feelings, at least until... recent times, but events here have brought the uncertainty of such things to the forefront of my mind once again.

[He imagines that some people here will have some thoughts regarding the question he's posing.]

I understand that 'right' and 'wrong' cannot always be quantified so easily. I am curious about the opinions of other people here.
