Revolution. During the war, freedom and liberty were desired by everyone but in various ways. The patriots, the loyalists, and the slaves all had different views on freedom. Freedom meant having no changes or going back to the days where there was no rebellion to loyalists like Mr. Lockton.

He decried the Patriots as an extremist group, who despite several valid points, were heading down a suicidal path. This fear of self-destruction is what drove most of Mr. Delaney’s actions against the Patriots. Due to his unwillingness to bend, Mr. Delancey failed to master Lady Fortuna, and he paid with his life. Mr. Delancey could not imagine an…
