Canon clanners are different from Ngoverse clanners.
And they had no reason to NOT want very good evidence before they believed a disgraced former warrior.
Yah, Canon are worse. that doesn't apply here, these are
Drakensis Clanners, as in, 'not Ngoverse' , so the comparison really doesn't matter between how I write the Clans, vs. how the Canon writes them.
What matters, is how
Drakensis writes them. however, the lack of 'conclusive proof' is actually
Canon with the Clans, whose justice system really does boil down, not to 'find the guilty' but instead, 'find someone to punish so the civilians know we're serious'.
It's open to further discovery how Drakensis views that, and whether it's a quirk of SOME clans and not others, or if it's universal, and if so, how bad is it? but given how many generations since the Amaris War, and they're still punishing people? or how far afield Breen's little murder mission has to go to find what she's after? Or, that they're even still
looking?
That's what the man would call an 'indicator'. we're talking more than ten generations, even the historical Mongols stopped at three, even the third reich stopped before then with their 'blood purity' laws.
