Vigilantes
Posted by Sophie on 10/08/19
While it is particularly troubling that this needs be said at all... I feel it bears saying.
The Mercies do not condone violence for the simple sake of violence under any circumstance. I'm sure Sister Juniper would agree with me that as unpleasant as someone's actions might be we would pray that they come to see the errors of their ways, pray to the gods for forgiveness, and complete the proper penance to return to the good graces of the Faith.
On a more personal level - If you injure someone they will need medical care. The Mercies and physicians will be the ones to provide this care. We have more work to do. We have enough work and we are tired.
Please don't give us additional patients when it's not necessary.

The correct recourse to insult is to shrug it off or hire a champion. Vigilanteism is a criminal act under the laws of the Crown, and those brought before the Court on such charges will find it less forgiving than the Faith.

We love the Mercies much as anyone but the Mother Mercy should leave the Lowers to handle the Lowers.
