Kenshiro greets the assembly with a short bow.
-- My name is Kenshiro Imai, and I have indeed come from afar. I do not consider myself a wise or learned man, but I am convinced that anyone who intends to live a worthy life must listen to the people of the past and present, seeking truth and virtue. To rely solely on one's own foresight is presumptuous and dangerous. That is why I am here.
After Kenshiro, other philosophers introduced themselves, and then the assembled discussed a wide variety of topics, prompted by the organizer. Finally, there was only time for the last topic.
— So, gentlemen, at the end of our meeting today, I propose that we discuss a topic that is awkward for many people in the modern world: which is worse, seduction or rape?
— Hmm, seduction is worse, of course, — Hector Lamaris, a sailor, was the first to speak. — We are talking about a married woman, right? Seduction is like rape of the mind and a real murder of the soul and heart. No matter how terrible the act of violence, a virtuous woman will remain faithful to her husband and become a victim of such dishonor through the fault of a third party, while seduction leads to an act of vile betrayal.
— I cannot agree with that, — the foreign prince countered, — any violence outside the battlefield is an act of vile barbarism that has no justification and cannot have any. If a woman succumbs to temptation, it only speaks to a lack of love from her husband.
— You are all wrong, — Shen Tao, chairman of Mindjin, clapped his hands, drawing the attention of those present to himself, — a woman is first and foremost the property of her family: her father, husband, or son, and therefore anyone who encroaches on her without the permission of the man who is in charge of her life is nothing more than a base thief. In the old days, thieves had their hands cut off, and I think that seducers and rapists deserve the same fate.
— It seems that the opinions of our guests are very diverse... Does anyone want to add anything to this topic?
