Daniel's stance on involvement

Daniel's meeting with Patric lasted for a few more hours. During that time, Daniel ended up learning quite a lot about the things that he missed during his time spent warring with the hostile mercenary groups in Africa, too busy with the war to keep tabs on the minor events far away. 

The entire meeting ended up the same way as it always did in the past, with both of them agreeing that they could never come to terms with the other party's beliefs and morals but opting not to turn their differences into a conflict on a real scale. 

This was the lesson the two of them learned from the second world war, when things quickly spiraled out of their control, turning an ideological conflict of nation versus community into the most radical forms both of those belief groups could produce.
