Where am I...?

. . .

Do I need to make a weapon?

Do you know how to make a weapon?

. . .no, but I know they are things you protect others with.

It's better to use persuasion to reach a mutually beneficial conclusion.

Why not use both? Though I won't argue that talking things out seems logical.

Each choice causes a chain of changes. Fight someone, and it will change how the other person approaches you in the future. That will affect how his teammates approach you, which will affect how other teams approach both of your teams, and so on.

Those changes don't necessarily have to be bad, do they? If you fought someone and won, you prove your strength and earn their respect, right? Their teammates' opinions would be swayed too.

It might turn out that way. Or they might realize they can't beat you alone, so they ask their teammates to help them overcome you. And if you overcome that, the teams may unite--against you.

An endless cycle and power struggle. . ..you're right, it's best avoided.

Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
