“What is the heart of the Lethani?” I asked Vashet. “Success and right action.” “Which is the more important, success or rightness?” “They are the same. If you act rightly success follows.” “But others may succeed by doing wrong things,” I pointed out. “Wrong things never lead to success,” Vashet said firmly. “If a man acts wrongly and succeeds, that is not the way. Without the Lethani there is no true success.”
