The flower of freedom requires blood to nourish it.
This phrase can have many interpretations and can turn into a piece of malicious black humor under certain circumstances, such as the flower of freedom of superpowers requiring the blood of people from other countries.
For revolutionaries—those who truly know what they are pursuing, and are willing to dedicate and sacrifice for the noble and beautiful goals, for the peace and happiness of the majority—this phrase is a romantic yet cruel reality of fate.
Since ancient times, bloodless revolutions have been a rare exception, while paving the road to revolution with blood and corpses is the norm. Given the national condition and social status of the Duchy, regardless of which class uses what form to initiate a revolution, the counterattack from the ruling class is bound to be swift, bloody, and cruel, and revolutionaries must have a clear understanding and awareness of this.
