Justice

Justice is one of the Eight Virtues of Britannia.

Description
Justice, founded on the principles of Truth and Love, is the devotion to truth, tempered by love. It is the wisdom that perceives what is right and what is wrong in human action. Yew, located deep within the heart of the Deep Forest, a gathering place for druids in their pursuit of Justice and the site of the High Court of Britannia and nurtures the great legal and judicial minds who practice there. Their devoition to this particular virtue allows the druids to further their skills and magical powers equally.

The Shrine of Justice is situated north of Yew, on a peninsula at the coast of the sea.

Ultima IV
Meditating at the Shrine of Justice will give these insights:
 * "To take the gold of others is injustice not soon forgotten. Take only thy due!"
 * "Attack not a peaceful citizen for that action deserves strict punishment!"
 * "Kill not a non-evil beast for they deserve not death, even if in hunger they attack thee!"

Ultima V
Quest form the shrine: "'Tis now thy sacred Quest to go unto the Codex and learn the weakness of the Unjust!"

Answer from the Codex: "Those who inflict injustice upon others, cannot expect fair treatment unto themselves."

Ultima VI
Wisdom of the shrine: "Justice without force is impotent. Force without justice is tyranny."

Blackthorn's Law
During Blackthorn's tyranny, Justice was twisted and turned into a draconian law: "Thou shalt confess to thy crime and suffer its just punishment, or thou shalt be put to death."

Trivia

 * The overview of Justice in Ultima IX's manual, Journal, erroneously describes the Virtue to be Truth combined with Courage — the Principles forming Honor — rather than Truth tempered by Love. It is unknown how such a fundamental error slipped by.
