"I have gained the power to break the false gods that exploit and deceive our race." Taon grinned as he raised a fist. "I respect you too much to turn my power against you, sir, but know that I shall never waver in my determination to bring them all to ruin, even if they are hiding among your 'design spirits'. No one should ever be deceived and betrayed by them as they have done to me. One day, I shall gain the power to liberate red humanity from their invisible tyranny!"

Is that a threat, pal?
"I do not. I… simply do not belong here anymore. I have changed too much. A part of me is grateful that I am able to leave. The mission has opened up my eyes to many truths. I have peered beyond the veil of falsehood and discovered that everything I have believed in is… false. I do not begrudge my fellow Ylvainans for believing in a false prophet, but I cannot respect them anymore for refusing to take my warning seriously. Since I cannot convince them of the truth, it is better if I set off and spread my revelations elsewhere. A day shall come when I return and teach them that my truth is stronger than theirs."

In a conflict of two, murder of a third party to save yourself is still convicted as murder afaik.
"First, Venerable Melin-Larkinson acted under extreme provocation. During the entire incident, he has never acted on his own volition. He has made all of his actions in response to the Emperor Tree and Venerable Lanie Larkinson. As we have already explained earlier, self-defense is a legitimate response in most situations and takes precedence over many laws. Even his act of killing his living mech can be excused when he genuinely believes that doing so will give him a greater chance of survival."

Something tells me the Red Two would value some of the assets FAR higher than human life in a similar situation, if the "object" was something like the Greater Beyonder Gate or the Dominion Of Man. Point is - Taon ib theory can get a verdict even harsher than if he murdered a fellow human, all without breaking the greater human laws.
It didn't matter what the Red Two said about designating living mechs as property rather than life forms that deserved to be treated in the same way as humans.

Wait, beasts in space..... didn't we have a brewing Voribug situation recently?
Ketis snorted. "As if that is of any use. It is not as if you can dispatch your supposed army against alien warships. Even if you limit your beast army to ground action, it takes too much resources and effort to manage your 'soldiers' and transport them from one battlefield to another. What beasts can do, mechs can do better."

She used to be one of my favorite secondary/tertiary characters... Now, I only hope she can still be redeemed... Poor girl.
Both of them had grown profoundly disappointed at how Lanie ended up. If she was unable to recover from her scars…

Imagine Davia becoming a God King Pilot and sniping people across galaxies..
No matter whether they resided in the old galaxy or the new frontier, the mechers and the fleeters were still the same for the most part. They possessed the same faults and held almost the same degree of disregard for space peasants. It was their elitism and their strong neglect towards the interests of the lesser folk that caused them to earn Venerable Stark's animosity.

As the Dark Zephyr finished off the fifth alien hyper battleship, the remaining surviving enemy vessels quickly became overwhelmed by the mechs that attacked and swarmed them with a vengeance.
