City Council of Darkness episode 9

you can’t prove there’s allegory in this

I like this aspect of Hal's background because I think it's fascinating and one of the many ways in which his character feels deeply nuanced. But also, I think Hal feeling like he has no choice but to step into the fray and take up his sword once again throws into sharp relief that one of the violences of injustice is that it requires action. In real life, even the most non-violent methods and most incremental approaches to upending oppressive systems require deep sacrifices of time and emotional well-being. The fight is relentless and draining. To have to fight injustice is in itself unjust, in large part because of the necessity of the work. Someone has to step up and make the sacrifices, often those already suffering under the weight of what needs to be fought off. And for Hal to be called to take up his sword again does contain a sort of innate hopelessness. In his words to Vokjan, Hal has made some version of peace with this. "[Freedom] is never a given. But now, we always have a chance." But also, his son is off fighting some unknown battle, unreachable to his parents, his older daughter is on stage risking the wrath of one of the most powerful people in the world, and his younger daughter took notes for a secret meeting planning treason. Things are better. They are all adults, not actual children being sent onto the battlefield. But still, the lament that started the Shaper's War, "why can't I keep my family safe?," has only gone half-answered despite the apparent completeness of the orcs' victory. And all those orcs in nice clothes, with flowers all around, and the free time to come see a show celebrating their history, will only remain free if Hal allows himself to once again be a weapon
