"It would be selfish of me to allow us to reach a dead end out of my own preference." Lambert said to Roz.

"Mind if I ask... What do Greybeard have power for if they can't use it to help other people?" Zakariah asked, finding himself curious.

Lambert seemed delighted someone was curious in his religion. "My philosophy was founded by a general from long ago, Jurgeon Windcaller.  After a disastrous defeat, he believed he, and all Nords, were being punished for misusing the Voice for martial gain.  As a result, he created the Way of the Voice.  Those who challenged him for his peaceful idealogy, he defeated through nonviolent means, and they became his disciples, the first Greybeards.

"The core tenets of the Way of the Voice are pacifism, and using the Thu'um only for worship of the gods, never for self-serving reasons.  I reasoned it was correct to use the Thu'um on the troll, because it prevented violence, and using it on the construct back in Skingrad because it protected you all from harm, but in reality I have l aready done more than I should've."
