Doing good and seeking justice is all well and
                                                
                                            
                                                
                                                     devoted to not just the cause of justice in the abstract, but the literal application of justice via a scimitar. Her band of true believers do the whole shiny mask thing and don’t charge for their services … which is another thing I wouldn’t do.
