(In the words of Calvin Coolidge:

"No person was ever honoured for what he received. Honour has been the reward for what he gave."

What I am trying to say is, honour is a reward on itself- Not a flimsy attachment to some biodegradable metal. Don't hold your honor more than you hold your life- You could get more of both if you survive.

To explain the side effects of cognitive immunity to pain (and in some cases, the immunity of physical feeling):

Pain is a form of communication, in ways. It allows us to know if something we are experiencing is real or not. Thereby, if somebody were to, say, attack you, you would not feel it. The brain would not think they exist. The brain would not prioritize the attacker. This causes one to lose their grip on reality- They feel as if they are living within a dream. You know how people often pinch themselves to see if it is a dream or not? Well, somebody with C.I.P. could not differentiate. They may think everything is a dream, lose their grip on reality, etc. This can cause them to think everything a hallucination or dream, causing them to become desparate to cure it somehow. They are searching for a cure to an illness that does not exist, so to speak. The desparation is too much for some, and can cause insanity.)
