Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
…is Primotalii’s main guide to life. He’ll accept and face any consequence of his decisions head-on!
But, he applies this line of thinking to others, as well. Your own actions should be equivalent to what you’re willing to face, is essentially how he sees it.
Hurt someone? Be open to being hurt in kind. Kill someone? Well, you’re simply asking for what happens to you. Only do what you’re willing to have done to you. He has no qualms against hurting those who have done unsavoury things — because they signed up for this game, willingly.
He’s annoying and a total nuisance, but he wouldn’t truly harm someone who never dabbled into anything harmful themselves. Now, he doesn’t think he’s a moral person — it just feels logical. Fair. Why involve someone in a game they never wanted to play? Again, it all comes back to personal freedom, with Primotalii. To control.
(This is why, despite having all the reasons to empathize with and enjoy Burning Spice, he has quite a distaste for the man. Burning Spice is indiscriminate, razing down anyone who comes into his path… and Primotalii thinks that’s just really, really lame.)
