You can still speak up for your principles, you can still argue against the ones you're being made to fight for, but in the end you do the job.

I am Trella the victorious leader of the Force of Sheep rebellion. Yes the name sounds ridiculous, and I still can't believe we named a major life changing event after livestock—or actually a stuffed animal—but it made sense at the time.
