That certainly is true, yes. Given a tyrant, or a group of them, the people will denounce him, silence him, and, in their turn, take actions that are much the same, both to depose the tyrant, and to make certain that no others think of rising up, or sneaking around back and just getting rid of someone in power, or getting someone else to do it, or.... Or any other number of means to that end, really. The point, when it comes down to it, is that tyranny naturally begets rebellion, and that, for all the good righteous rebellion does, and is, for all of its amazing power, and its beauty it becomes the purview of everyone, to ensure that power rests exactly where it should, with the people, and does not give anyone the chance to establish such heavy power again.

And, all right, as much as Enjolras is aware that this is NOT his place to judge the kedan and does not like to be that person, he cannot help but be dismayed by what's happened, anyway.

Maybe that is part of the reason he is not backing down either, and nodding as Dante speaks.

"True. And seeing as there ARE so very many of us, probably several someones. There is not exactly any way that I can see this ending well. "

That's an observation, really, more than a threat; he's careful to keep the emphasis there.

"Bad business ethics are one thing, I guess, as long as people get away with them. But once bad publicity spreads...I do not know about everyone, but I can't see most people wanting to risk buying stolen goods. You may upset the wrong person and then everything falls apart. If I heard that a shop was dealing in those, I'd be afraid of accidentally buying something of a Snake's. Who knows what they might do, if they suspected that was possible?"

He's not sure of his side of that to be quite honest, either, but Enjolras does enjoy it, all the same.
