The Law of Talion

When someone steals something from you, what are you meant to do? The old adage is ‘an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth’ but as scholars have pointed out that just leads to a world full of the blind, toothless people and nobody wants that except for optometrists and dentists.

This young chap hasn’t really learned that yet but he just found an eye patch and reckons he would look good as a modern day pirate king so he fashioned a crown and is now looking to enact his first pirate adventure. Perhaps some retaliation against his brother for his minor transgression of trespassing in his room the other day would be a good place to start…
