Justice is a ravenous mare, and Mercy is a blind charioteer. Justice can run a thousand miles in one day and eats not only the grass and waters, but people that it finds and judges. Justice is a powerful and true steed. Poor Mercy is often senseless as to what Justice devours, though when she learns of Justice's actions, she cannot look, and instead listens to the judgment at hand. Mercy may pull on the reins to spare the horses Justice might devour. This is their relationship; Justice shows blind Mercy the world by pulling her, and Mercy spares the world by starving Justice.
