There are institutions in the world that will always exist. There will always be a government of some kind, whether it is democratic or totalitarian. There will always be religious institutions, providing the spiritual needs for many. There will always be institutions dedicated to learning, even if only those of the upper echelons are able to attend. There will always be medical institutions who strive to heal the world, one sickness at a time.
And there will always be organised crime.
Since time immortal, humanity had operated on the knife’s edge of morality. On one side, sit the saintly few who dedicate their entire lives to bettering others. Those who would never consider injuring or hurting others for money or influence. And there are those for who killing their own brother wouldn’t even be a second’s thought if it meant they could increase their standing.
Most of humanity rests firmly on the edge of that knife, believing themselves to be good and honest. But the reality is that most can be swayed with the utmost ease. While they may not pick up a gun, they are unlikely to stop the person picking the gun up. And when faced with personal crises, it’s surprisingly easy for people’s morals to break down.
The people that you have grown up with have never had to worry about such trivial issues as morality. Because there has never been a morality to worry over. There has only even been the Family, and your family is known to those who need to, as the Jeon Clan.
