(Anonymous) 2014-08-15 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)Yes, he's got the blood of hundreds, maybe thousands, on his hands, and he's fanatical in how convinced he is that it was utterly necessary. But the Walled Nation is so dystopic that it's hard to say how many more people would have died or would yet die if there weren't some force trying to investigate and combat the monarchy and Military Police. Also, the hindrance of education, exploration, and especially technology would contribute indirectly to death statistics.
Now, it's vaguely possible he has something, uhhhhh, up his sleeve (forgive me) that will at least prolong the time he has before the execution, such as a speech, or some sort of bargain to strike. Maybe Pixis will come to his rescue after all. But, again, deathflags. He would make a great martyr, motivating not only his comrades but all the civilians who learn of his death concurrently with or just after learning how they've all been played.
