Rapaka, Toa of Twilight
teachings_draft_1.crn //: LOAD NEXT PASSAGE
Seventh lesson: Some say that it is right and honorable to take your enemies in a fair fight, face to face. This is untrue. Those who wish to do evil will never fight fair, and when the fate of innocents is on the line you shouldn't either. Seek every advantage you can. If you're smart and lucky, your enemy will never have a chance to strike back.

T: And Rapaka? V: We don't need to worry about him. He's coming along well. T: I would have thought you'd have similar concerns with him as you do with Takoa. V: … I did at first. But what makes me worried about Takoa is that his preference of tactics seems to be driven by bloodlust. Rapaka is more… practical. He understands that killing is only ever a means to a greater end, and one that should be taken only as a last resort. T: … And striking from afar is simply the most effective way to kill. V: Yes. But the launcher he chose isn't just useful for that. He seems to have chosen it with utility in mind, it can handle all kinds of special purpose ammunition. T: Good, good. That's a relief to hear. V: I don't mean to imply he isn't interested in his own skills though. He does seem to genuinely enjoy shooting. T: We should talk to the Ghosts about upgrading his equipment. And perhaps get him a sanok? V: … I don't think he needs it, turaga. He can hit a shadow leech at 600 bio. He does better with the volitak.
