====== To Study the Blade ====== Take up the path of the swordman And follow the legend of steel Find strength in yourself to defeat them When foes on the way are revealed Forget not that you are no better Than the baker, the farmer, the maid Who chose not the path of the fighter And took not the sword for their trade And know that the battle is hardest When the foe you are facing is you So turn not your heart to the darkness Lest darkness taint all that you do And last, by the blade you will gain it But might is no measure of man The truth must decide what you will do And might will decide what you can!
