Actually, Terra Incognita.

Nah, it's the dialogue. And by the looks of
it, I think I went rather overboard.

The following:

I'll try to explain these...of course,
This should be rather fun.

“Hmm…you continue to demean such an epitome principle as rank, yet in your
stance, never waiver from its respective boundaries…” Dash spoke, as he
continued.

Since Dash is speaking to Skye, he's basically saying that
Skye dislikes an abstract concept such as rank, yet even
though she dislikes it, is basically a hypocrite since
she continues to sit upon her seat of power.

“If you are to emerge prevalent from conflict, you must take upon yourself
such vicarious policy so as to renounce rank, and thusly assimilate with the
common citizenry. Only then, will your fellow people question the ideals of
the aggressor, and exist in a harmonious state with the republic of Faiye…”

Okay, this one's more difficult...

let's see here, I believe dash is saying
:If you want to win the trust of your people
once again, it is imperative you sacrifice
your rank, and join with the citizenry against
the nobility. Only if you do this, will your
former allegiant people question the authority
of their dictator and avert impending war.

“And yet, you continue to apostrophize and preach to me the antics such an
intricate social phenomena…why do you not, yourself, carry arms against such
a ‘venomous’ principle?”

Hmm...

Again, yet another confusing quote from Skye.

-Addressing your ideas as correct, and preaching
about your social values (basically theory), why
don't you follow your own philosophy, instead
of telling me what to do?

“I represent the nonconformist…the Egalitarian entity…I do not believe in
such frivoling so called ‘apotheosis’ as an hierarchical state…all citizens
have inherent right to their words, not just those branded worthy, as
pertaining to their theology, name and respective affiliation…” He spoke,
looking towards Skye continuing his statement.

What was I thinking when I wrote this?

Dash says

-I go against society, and don't conform to
so called 'standards'. All people are equal at
heart, so rank is pointless.  Why believe in
such a 'perfection in ideal' as a state of
hierarchy? Since all citizens are equal,
why then does the government and church
continue to oppress those who disagree, and
reward with favours those who are on a consensus
with them?

... is really, really hard to follow.

My apologies, I guess pressing for meaning is
rather difficult with the dialogue. If you
read earlier, you can see my attempts to
rewrite the first part of Order of the Falcon
Part Three.

“Very well, Sergei…ludicrous you would despise me based on common ‘rank’…I
believe your perceptions on a class based society are in their entirety,
completely radicalized.” Ludan spoke harshly, as he eyed Sergei, continuing
his statement,

Ludan is obviously angered at Sergei.

-Very well, Sergei, laughable you would
despise me due to the fact I am a senator!
Your perceptions on a classless society are
completely radical! They will never work,
and would lead to anarchy!

“...and negate in variance to the truth…do you not happen to find it
conflicting you speak in the same manner of that in which you claim,
oppresses the citizenry?”

Okay, this is a rather odd quote.

It is negative in comparison to the truth! Don't
you find it rather conflicting that you're practicing
hypocrisy, since you're speaking in the same
manner of what you declared earlier which oppress
the citizens?

I've noticed that you've already worked on rewriting. Now I'm starting to
understand more. Thanks.

Ah, perceptive. The selections of dialogue
you chose were particularly interesting. (a
lot of them had to do with rank. I guess I
was rather redundant on that...)
