On Convictions and Compatriotism


[Surveying the destruction at Waterloo, in 1815]

Darius: You shouldn't be taking part in this tragedy.

Duncan: I was raised a warrior. I choose battles I believe to be just.

Darius: Oh, I'm sure. You're quite loyal to your convictions and compatriots... But I wonder what these men think about convictions and compatriotism now?
