DAUNTLESS: THE BRAVE
FACTION MANIFESTO
WE BELIEVE
That cowardice is to blame for the world's injustices.
WE BELIEVE
That peace is hard-won, that sometimes it is necessary to fight for peace. But more than that:
WE BELIEVE
That justice is more important than peace.
WE BELIEVE
In freedom from fear, in denying fear the power to influence our decisions.
WE BELIEVE
In ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.
WE BELIEVE
In acknowledging fear and the extent to which it rules us.
WE BELIEVE
In facing that fear no matter what the cost to our comfort, our happiness, or even our sanity.
WE BELIEVE
In shouting for those who can only whisper, in defending those who cannot defend themselves.
WE BELIEVE,
Not just in bold words but in bold deeds to match them.
WE BELIEVE
That pain and death are better than cowardice and inaction because
WE BELIEVE
In action.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
In living comfortable lives.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
that silence is useful.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
in good manners.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
In empty heads, empty mouths, or empty hands.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
That learning to master violence encourages unnecessary violence.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
That we should be allowed to stand idly by.
WE DO NOT BELIEVE
That any other virtue is more important than bravery.
