| Members are encouraged to strive towards the ideal of a remade individual – that is, one who adopts a new purpose to guide their lives. This could be a definite end goal that a member strives towards, or just a set of principles to live by. Some Heralds go further than this, reinventing more aspects of themselves. For example, certain members have chosen to change their names, how they dress or their manner of speaking as it suits them. However, many have been welcomed into the group for other reasons, without them making such drastic changes. Perhaps these members don’t like what they have remembered about themselves and are looking to start their lives anew. Or perhaps they have forgotten everything that once kept them going – their friends and family, their former jobs, and so on – and are left with nowhere else to turn for sanctuary. | Members are encouraged to strive towards the ideal of a remade individual – that is, one who adopts a new purpose to guide their lives.

| - | The Heralds also want to use their philosophy to improve life for Monument's inhabitants. Their most pressing concern is society as a whole. Broadly, the group is opposed to restoring Dunia’s government in the form it is believed to have previously taken – doing so could lead to catastrophe, as with restoring any other relic of the past. Although excessive fascination with historical information for its own sake is discouraged, the Heralds want to establish the course of the recent calamity so that any hypothetical future crises can be averted. They also value technological developments, with some members dedicating themselves to engineering and invention. | + | The Heralds also want to use their philosophy to improve life for Monument's inhabitants. Their most pressing concern is society as a whole. They speculate about the possibility of starting a form of governance that puts personal freedom above all. The group is sceptical of authority figures deciding how the surviving population should live their lives, and instead want authority to only have as little influence as is necessary for their survival. Outside said influence, an individual would be able to live as they choose and pursue their own ambitions freely. Broadly, the Heralds oppose the idea of re-establishing government as it previously existed - such an institution would just be another relic of the past, after all.\\ |
