Challenge: Round 5, Challenge 1: Would you be able to kill someone to save your own life? To save someone you loved?
Word count: 70


Would you be able to kill someone to save your own life? To save someone you loved?

No, I would not. You see, there is almost always another way, another option. Using patience and creativity, we can find a solution that does not involve killing.

I will, however, injure as many kneecaps as necessary to protect someone I love.

And please do not ask me how I would have answered this question 10 or 20 years ago. That is between the Lord and my conscience.

Thanks! Writing the Shepherd is something kind of new for me and it was good to try it.

Are you going to sign up for big damn quests next round?

I'm gonna have to say "no". :-( Bunnies are pretty darn scarce for me. Their fickle as all get out. Come when they wanna.
