[hider=One Last Thing about Giray (That I will post here)]

Ioannes believes that he gave up his freedom so that [i]others[/i] can be free.

In Giray, or so Ioannes has been taught, Elves and Dwarves can marry, as well as Elves and Men and Halflings and Dwarves, and their children live unmolested. Even Witches are judged by the content of their character and not by, you know, being witches. Not merely that, but Giray civilians can believe or disbelieve whatever they want, work without fear of being denied equal pay because of their gender or race, and, well, let's just say that Giray is a good place to be a civilian, as long as you're willing to endorse and fund the Slave System that keeps you all safe.

So, a cornerstone of Ioannes' worldview/morality/whatever is that he [i]does[/i] value freedom, but he also believes that his own is the price to pay for so many others to be free, and not just Girayid civilians, but also his own Hellene Relatives. Basically, The Needs of the Many outweigh his specific needs.
