Very well. Hearts and souls. The point remains.

It's probably reasonable to believe that the Imperium dislike multi-world governments and encourage their breakup as a matter of policy, but they're definitely not illegal. Quote:

In one sense it's fully familiar, a monument to the tribal king might be completely part of his frame of reference. But the scale of it! It's totally irrational, it would require the effort of the entire tribe to the exclusion of all else for years on end if it could be done at all (which it could not, at is tech level). No sane tribe would carve a mountain into such a thing, when there are so many easier, cheaper ways to make a monument. Motives don't have to make sense to anyone else, esp. once resources reach a certain level. |
