[Ethan is standing in the shade beneath some trees, just barely into the forest. Having been here for a month, he's relatively relaxed, but his axe is still leaned against the tree beside him just in case. He's just closing his journal after writing just the following question:]

How important is family to you?

[That's about the answer he expected.]

What would you consider more important?

[Voice] 6610_c May 13 2010, 12:37:16 UTC

All right. ...Thanks anyway.

[Enjoy Mrs. Brisby slowly and quietly reading out loud your words, since she still is learning how to read. A teeny tiny laugh once she finally reads it.]

...I don't know how I manage without mine, really...

So your family isn't here either. [It's a question, really, but his tone of voice makes it sound like a statement.]

[Voice] courageofheart May 12 2010, 15:29:45 UTC

No, my children are still safe at home.

[Voice] 6610_c May 12 2010, 15:44:22 UTC

[Children... There's a difference between a parent's bond with their child and the bond between siblings. It's not the answer to his question, not the one he was looking for, anyway.]

...That's good. I hope you see them again soon.

That's an interesting question.

[voice] 6610_c May 12 2010, 12:42:07 UTC

...It's something I've been thinking about since I got here.

[voice] antisilent May 12 2010, 16:22:15 UTC

I think family is important to everyone. It's how they define it which is variable.

[voice] 6610_c May 12 2010, 16:29:01 UTC

I agree. Family isn't defined only by blood.

But... I think there are things more important than family.

Very.

[Voice] 6610_c May 12 2010, 12:43:46 UTC

[Difficult to ask, but...]

More important than doing what's right?

[Voice] derek_bliss May 12 2010, 22:30:53 UTC

Depends. If the family member is the one doing 'wrong', such as murdering other folks, than no.

If they're a victim though of a societal expectation, especially one they can't help, like, say, being of a disapproved religion? Then stick with your family.

[Voice] 6610_c May 13 2010, 00:49:39 UTC

I agree.

What if someone from your family does something wrong, but not because they're a bad person, though? It's definitely not right to do nothing, but... they're still your family.

...

What if... your family did something you disagreed with?

... [He doesn't want to go into specifics.]

I don't know. Something too large scale to ignore.
