Honor is something you are, regardless of any other power or influence. As Terrasylvans we believe in Honor where none is found. We believe in Honor when the world around us does not. We believe a person can be honorable even if those around them do not see it. There are no lowest or highest among us, we are all equals around the campfire. Our individual Honor makes that possible.

The Cheshire Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.
Alice: I don’t much care where.
The Cheshire Cat: Then it doesn’t much matter which way you go.”
-Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
