Perhaps I might ply the shipping lanes as a trader or minor diplomat.
I want to get married, I know that for certain....perhaps I can settle down in some quiet corner of the Empire and live out my days in a custom, unsupported clone until I can die peacefully in my old age like all humans should.
To a Texan like you, a hero is some type of weird sandwich, not some nut who takes on three Gunlogi.

Not if the right Empire is victorious the first time.

Relatively speaking we are in a time of peace......... The cluster has never been more stable than it is now as a direct result of the formation of CONCORD and the works done by various leaders of the Empires, notably amongst the Amarr, Emperor Heideran who was awarded the Aldonis Statue, a Gallentean award for his contributions to ensuring peace and stability.

What the hell do you mean, "after the war ends?" There will always be someone who has something somebody else wants, and that somebody else will have ISK enough to pay us to make a mess of things. And when rich people want something badly enough, you'd better believe the person who has what they want is rich enough to hire more of us to try and stop the first lot from making that mess. There's no such thing as "after the war ends." There will always be wars. And thanks to the clone vats, we will always be here to fight those wars.
Oh I think you misunderstand..... if the right people win....there will only ever be one other war.

I did not think you this sentimental Templar Vadam, perhaps when I return to the Temple we can speak of your place in the Empire.
Every man, woman, and child has their own pre-destined place, a place given unto them in boundless benevolence by God so that they may live as all proper Amarr should. Perhaps your brothers in the Classairii can help you find your own slice of peace in the Empire.
Though I know some take more comfort being disassociated with the peoples of the Empire..... sometimes I think it kinder when the child is taken from their home to learn the ways of God and their duty. In that way they understand what it is they must protect, but never long for what they have never felt.
((Edit we do not know anything about Earth Thal, that includes Samurai. Most people in New Eden think Terra or the what ever lay through the EVE gate is more myth than fact.))

I would love to know peace for one moment sir. #3. My son will learn the faith as I did #4. (I am aware of their being no knowledge of earth, that was the only example I could think of.)
You have a child? To be so lucky as you..... ah but I am only envious.
As for your peace...remember that while it is your duty that has sculpted you and defined your life, both in terms of direction and content, it is ultimately a display of God's glory to accept what you are as separate from who you are, God's benevolence allowing us the personal freedoms of our individuality.
Take pride and solace in this individuality knowing that ours is the way on Uniform Though achieved through the certainty of the Faith, through the hearts and minds of the trillions of Faithful, and amongst them you are another unique part of that grand design.
As to each man springs a hundred different thoughts or emotions from a single glance of beauty, we take solace that all of us universally come to that same conclusive thought that what we saw was beautiful, and know that in order to find our Peace we must pursue those individual thoughts,
Perhaps a Pilgrimage is what you require Templar Vadam, a pilgrimage undertaken for the same purpose as all Faithful undertake their journey, for the same reason I did mine. Pray for guidance and you shall be answered. Each Amarrian's Pilgrimage is a deeply personal experience.
I am sure you will be able to find your path.

The daily comings and goings at the Temple, coupled with the varied climates and time zone clashes makes social interaction with the Praetoriani difficult.
Congratulations are in order Templar Vadam, perhaps a cask of Mathian wine from the Ouryon Family vinyards?
I hope I do not over step my bounds in wishing you too have a child of your own blood some day.
Sempre Pax brother.

When I grow brave enough to ask the woman I love for her hand, than a child of my own will be on my mind. I do wish to talk to you about the nature of my pilgrimage, when you have the time and we have privacy contact me.
Of course. Pilgrmages are very spirtual things, each one unique, and whileI can only suggest places that held great significance to me......it will inevitably be your decision that directs the journey.....
However discussion itineraries and travel preparations is never a foolish thing.
