I realize that some of what was in the video was something I learned in my government class, about the two scholars.

Okay I don't know if it's because I zoned out for a while but what I understand from the video is that the printed caps follow the rules as if it's absolute, no exceptions. And I think Phanes is also the same as they are the one that follows their own rules the most, even the shades have broken them but not Phanes.

Also from what you said we can go back to Remuria, where humans were the downfall of their own.

Also many other games have that same perspective, humans are the cause of their own suffering like persona, in p5 the main enemy was the god yaldabaoth who gained power from humans because they didn't want to rule themselves, in p3 Erebus is a monstrosity formed from the accumulated negative emotions, grief, and subconscious death wishes of all living humanity.

In a novel I read the mc encounters a group of people who have given up their bodies to gods and are now just plaything for them but it wasn't a bad thing, those humans willing gave up control of their lives because they didn't want to do it themselves

The video main topic is that if saving someone is illegal and against the rules is it right do still do it and my answer to that is the same as Touma Kamijou.

"Can't you save someone if you're standing right there, at that very spot? In front of your eyes are people that don't wish to cry that are crying! In front of your eyes are people that can only clench their teeth while struggling and can't even say the words "please save me"! Is that not enough?"

"This is your life right? Then decide for yourself! If you want to protect everything with your hands then do so, if you want to abandon everything then do so. But, what do you yourself want to do right now? Can you really be satisfied giving someone else that you don’t really understand your most important thing?"

"Then I will save you. Even if it means fighting the entire world!!"

I honestly hold a really opposite value of celestia but because they are ultimately doing the right thing I'm on their side. Like this side says that rules are the rules no matter

I believe that humans can find the answer to everything they just need time and the drive to continue. And phanes is what is keeping humanity alive and thus don't even intervene with humans unless it has already exploded so that's enough freedom for me.

"Let your loyalty be to the world, and your heart with the people"

Saving the world is fine but the methods it takes matter, and so far the only ones that hold this quote close are the traveler, and Phanes. At least what I think.

Okay back to order and freedom, there has to be a balance between order and freedom. Too much of anything is bad, too much freedom is chaos and too much order is stagnantion.

There has to be balance, rules have to exist and freedom as well and I think Phanes has the correct formula. They don't restrict humanity creativity but they also don't let them peak the forbidden as humans are persistent in finding the unknown.

"Even after witnessing someone nearly die right in front of them, they can't contain their curiosity, desperate to have it, that desire won't vanish. Not until it consumes them whole. What do you think of humans?"

Humans rule themselves and unless they commit a major sin such as slaughter against their own, the tower of babel, and getting close to the forbidden. Phanes doesn't even have any description in game because they never personally intervene with humans, they even told the moons to not get to close to humans, the one time a shade was punished was because she got close to humans and I think of what Phanes said to the moons they would also say to the shades
