Good Knights all,
Having been a fan of Batman series over the many years I have been most impressed with the recent films "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight". In my opinion this particular Batman has been more "human", more real to me. As I am wont to do I seek the Values in Chivalry in all things I see or do, in this case I found something before me that was obvious but perhaps it was something I had not wished to see.
In my view Chivalry is all about knowing the right thing to do or the correct manner in which one should live their life. Likewise it is having the courage to act upon that knowledge. After watching The Dark Knight I came to the realization that this is not always what is considered right or good. Sometimes the right thing to do goes against our basic concepts of right and wrong. As in all things these actions and deeds must be balanced with the whole, and we must not forget the consequences that shall not only involve ourselves but all others. which again I felt was well illustrated in the film.
So it is in this Champions of Chivalry I wish to Honour the Dark Knights that do what they must for the welfare and well being of all while accepting the risks, challenges and sometimes unpleasant and unappreciated consequences of putting others before ones self. Indeed, is that not what Chivalry truly is?
I am at your service,
Sir Blackwolf
