Specifically, we'll be talking about the Virtue of Compassion and the Principle of Love, joined this time by <strong>Chlorthos Dragon</strong>.</p> <br> <p>In this episode, the discussion first focuses on how Richard Garriott came up with the Three Principles that, in turn, were used to inform the Eight Virtues (hint: it involves <em>The Wizard of Oz</em>). We then talk about a small grab bag of things, including the relationship of virtue and law, the odd way in which the Eight Virtues always seem to be in conflict with each other, and just why some people go about following laws.</p><h4>Music</h4> <br> <p><em>Britain Positive</em>, from the <em>Ultima 9</em> soundtrack</p>
