IRA

In my new IRA book, a major issue in this story is ethics and morals. The other elven princes fight this war in a less brutal manner. The protagonist of the story, Alith Anar, fights this war brutally. Some might say that he has no ethics or morals, but the fact is that his tactics are effective. The other princes think that Alith is in the wrong for using the tactics that he does. This is how the issues of ethics and morals come into play. While Alith isn't innocent and he's certainly using extremely brutal tactics, he isn't like the cultists. The cultists sacrifice people in the names of their gods and for their own perverted pleasures, while Alith uses the tactics he does for revenge and to free his people. Also, Alith doesn't attack innocents. Another thing I believe is worth noting is that Alith, while young, is a very gifted military tactician. You also have to admit that while he's very committed to his goal of vengeance, he's also a good leader, capable of inspiring others. Because of Alith's experiences he's becme very bitter. This also leads to the reason why he has issues with the other princes and such because of the fact that they don't understand why their military tactics won't be effective in fighting the druchii. They may consider Alith's waging of war to be dishonorable, but this is the only way he can fight an effective war with his lesser numbers.
