The way the Order operates would be viable as long as there was an effective justice system in place. As Aedan said, without a strong backing from the ministry, they are, at most, only temporarily incapacitating their enemies. It's like having capable police officers arresting criminals to then have them released by corrupt and inept lawyers, prosecutors and judges when it's time for the trial and have them committing the exact same crimes the day after their release. On the other hand, those affiliated to Aedan are pushing for a war in the true sense of the word and they don't shy away from shedding blood.
