Such a decision cannot be decided as though there are only two sides to the coin. When facing a reasonable opponent, circumstances should dictate. One man may be a perfectly honorable and righteous individual who will neither retaliate later if beaten, nor continue after your own honorable surrender. Another may kill a man he has already beaten or return to trouble you again. Most men are essentially honorable in matters of life and death, so I am inclined to give the benefit of the doubt ad yield when beaten or show mercy when triumphant. In truth, if this were not the case, there would be far more empty taverns about."The Aasimar's eyes harden briefly and his voice grows noticibly colder as he continues"As for our particular circumstances, we do not deal with civilized races and I am inclined to agree with Alevyth. Not all creatures are reasonable or honorable. Should you show mercy you will likely awaken less than pleasantly one night. Should you yield expecting honor, you will likely spend eternity amongst them. Anything short of their utter destruction, regardless of what you must do to accomplish it, lays the fate of yourself and their future victims upon your own head."</blockquote>
