Talk:No Enemy But Despair (short story)

Gen Volst's Head
So for those of you who have the book, could you tell me what your reading of that speech is? I'm getting multiple different readings, it could be the Enemy speaking through it, or the Great Houses (and yes I know it's meant to be metaphorical, but I can't just put that in the plot summary), it seems ambiguous to me as to who it's speaking for, since there's a reading where it's the Great Houses and it's arguing they're not a monolithic entity, and a reading where it's the Enemy and the Great Houses are oppressive.
