Launched today to assist the vessel 'Hokan'.
A few traitors were prowling and i quickly jumped into the dogfight to help the vessel of the Kenpentai.
But... Sadly... After a long fight, they finally damaged it to the point its crew had to abandon the ship.
The traitors decided to fight with honor, and i started a joust with one of them.
The traitor's vessel seemed to be quite damaged... I believe it's why i finally succeeded to take him down.
I then started to patrol the area near Stokes. I encountered there a curious vessel.
I never saw such a strange vessel, and i didn't know what to do.
The vessel seemed to be well armed.
We started to talk....
Blackbox@Chimaera/#Go-Yon-Go|Ni-San-Rei|-Nana-Roku-kyû//Operator#Chūi-Gamo-Ujisato] Ozajul-(Ai): Explain: honor mean illogical, suicidal?"[/color Wrote:[color=#33CC00][KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: We live to keep the honor of our clan... Of our masters. This is not illogical.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: i think steel boy, you can't understand the word honor... that not in your data [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: However it may be suicidal... Depends on the situation. Ozajul-(Ai): "Sounds lika another human thing that I can not understand" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: I believe we have better to do than chatting here anyway... *sighs*
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: maybe you know definition but truly meaning .. not Ozajul-(Ai): "Maybe because I have not seen *honor* in humans behaviour?"
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: maybe you saw but not recognize [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: Honor lies in the inter relations one has with others.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: that is difference between men and machines Ozajul-(Ai): *Silence* [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: Your conduct is honorable when your mouth doesn't know what lie is... When you do what is right even if it may cost you.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: hai Ozajul-(Ai): "Then it is natural for my kind, righ?" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: This is between ethics, struggling with events generated by life and ideals.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: nope that is not natural for your kind. your a logical you know.. honor... all but not logic Ozajul-(Ai): "Acting logicaly, accordinatly to orders. Is not that same?"
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: nope... some order not logical [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: I do not know if you follow a code of conduct. Nor if you do know how to lie. If you don't know how to lie, how could you be granted respect for always telling the truth. Honor exists because treachery exists.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: exactly [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: Everything -is-. Undivided. What matters is what you do. Given to events. Ozajul-(Ai): "Acting right, according to what?" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: To the conduct code you're following. One may do a thing you see as wrong. However he may do the right thing, according to his ethics. Ozajul-(Ai): "Acting even when it is not *right* in current situation?" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: *Sighs* I did not really expect you to understand.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: yep its lilltle bit hard for you ... [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: Maybe you should check Buddhism teachings. You could be enlightened, who knows... If you are a sentient being, you are supposed to be able to understand. Ozajul-(Ai): "Then...*pause*...it must be some thing in knowing how to draw a *line* between right and wrong in different situations, according to your ordering programm?" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: Humans do not work according to a program. Ozajul-(Ai): "I know. But I used this word in a wide meaning" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: There is no absolute line between right and wrong. And there is no evil nor goodness.
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: you folows a complex system of orders and you obey according to them, humans dont [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: It's why i said everything simply is. Undivided. Ozajul-(Ai): "You act depends on situation?"
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: yep they folow orders , but react on hole different levels [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: We apply our code of conduct according to situations we encounter, hai... But it's not the only one thing we do consider when doing so. Ozajul-(Ai): "Flexibility...*machine makes pause*"
[KNF]Di.M.Shigehito: with you kind is blac or white.. human had a grey .. you know Ozajul-(Ai): "Sometimes I should avoid instructions to achieve better results?" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: The end is not what matters. The path does. Ozajul-(Ai): "Is not it a general *end* of any actions - survive?" [KNF]Ci.Ujisato.Gamo: Every life ends one day...What's the point of surviving for the sake of surviving?
I suddenly realized i was trying to explain to a machine what was the meaning of our lives.
Strange universe we're living in...
Anyway... We stopped to talk as a Bretonian warrior showed up.
It seems he was seeking blood and we finally fought.
I had to eject in the end.
Awaiting for a reassignment in a new strike wing.
Sayonara for now.
