'Temple' means shrine. It's also the upper part of the face.

I've always found this quote to be interesting, as Beowulf's default job is Temple Knight (and have often imagined him headhunting part time in the name of the Ajora) but I have never really understood what it meant.

Also, how do you think the worship of God (in this case, just Ajora) and one's mind tie are related to each other and how well do you think this quote ties in with the Church and their hierarchy of knights?

Edit: Or how much do you think Shrine Knights believe in Ajora?

In Japan, temple and shrine are two seperate ideas. Temple is used for Buddhism, while shrine is used for things generally thought of as Shintoism.

Uhh as for the question, I'll answer further when I have time.

Well it's also weird -.-.. Cause technically he indirectly says that he's a "Shrine Knight" XD... But we know that can't be true...






Or is it? =P... (*I Play FFT too much*)

Beowolf is just a freakin awsome character...I see no reason to ponder the reasoning behind him being a temple knight.

Pondering the why and how behind things is always reason in itself, Corporate. It expands our own understanding of them, and gives us a better perspective and stronger, more valid backing to feel the way we do for them. Accepting things at face value and never delving deeper to truly understand them is to lose quite a lot of the enjoyment to be found in them--and, for that matter, to become the shallow suckers who compose the majority of Earth's population.

The point is that there probably isn't that good of an explantion for it is what it is....thats like asking why Rafa is a Hell Knight....becuase he is and he is not from hell or even a little evil.

There's still nothing wrong in wondering about and discussing it.
