Bitorin,
I’m not quite jumpy; but one thing I do not tolate is the Mouth of the Trough.
Suffering under such hideous misconceptions as that man had thrown at me in the name of poor-read-ness and in the false Troughish metathesis of Honour with mere Policy, I had to show him the noose; that he did silence his tongue saved him that I should have to use it (lol).
Similarly with the tongue of wife. Unpracticedness shall not be tolerated; nor the idea that Honour consists in this: that one “gesture” before a fight or be allowed to grab a shield in-fight (which is poor knavery and concomitant to mid-fight snacking: anathema). Such handles are the shortcut of trough to devise an easy schema for “this equals honour” and “this does not equal honour”; a kind of short-hand sufficient for Christians and false lawyers, but not the powerful, violent men who must first write the code of honour and enact it in the substance of their bodies.
