Aridal Mirak: Difference between revisions

So now, at 49, Aridal had to find his way on Vulcan. During this time on Vulcan, he also immersed himself in Vulcan philosophy and logic under the now stronger influence of his mother and her family. He studied in depth the writings of Surak, Kiri-kin-tha and T'Plana-Hath. Again, however, he did not feel he belonged, because while he found some elements of Surak's philosophy really helpful and beneficial, he rejected their absolutely strict implementation as practised by most Vulcans. In particular, he rejected the absolute suppression of feelings. While he was never rejected on Romulus because of his appearance, on Vulcan, however, his partial Romulan origin was recognised because of the slight bulges on his forehead. He increasingly longed for his time in the Romulan fleet, which he regarded in retrospect as his happiest time.
