Aspects
Neptune Septile Virginia
An old, almost fated thread can pull you toward sacrificing yourself for honor, a near-compulsive readiness to suffer for the sake of staying pure. The pull is noble and dangerous in equal measure. Honor the devotion, then question the cost so you serve your ideals without being consumed by them.
Lean in — Ask whether the sacrifice your honor demands is real.
Watch for — Romanticize your own martyrdom for purity.
