Whereas some will describe Kassandora's tactics as honour-less or callous, there is a beauty in them. I think I am I am the person most experienced with Kassandora, maybe only Arascus knows her better at this point than me. Kassandora's greatest strength is in her will. Her will that provides her with endless energy and focus. Her will that lets her focus on a problem endlessly. Most of all, her will to sacrifice.
Normal minds have be pushed past the edge of sanity before they consider fighting with their all. Even the other members of the White Pantheon are guilty of this behaviour, it is not shameful after all. There is great pride in being able to hold back from complete annihilation, after all, only cornered rats fight ignorant of their wounds. Kassandora can rule the world, and she is still able to put herself in the mindset of a cornered rat.
