The world around and within Our Hero is complex and filled with horrors. It's not just that the time is out of joint, it is also his own self which is out of joint, and the cursed spite is that he can't ever set these right. The whole world is an unweeded garden, and so is one's own psyche. It's not just that killing one man will not bring down the Federation. It's also that killing one man will not change or annihilate Blake's comprehension of the world and his own soul. Travis may be an embodiment of everything that's dark and base in Blake's own nature, but Blake knows you cannot simply chop off a portion of the self.
Wonderful. Natasa, I really have missed you while you've been offlist.
