There was once a boy.

He lived in a room.

There were rules. Eat food when it comes. Return what he could not eat. Poo and pee over there.

Breaking the rules brought pain.

Then one day, he heard yelling and hitting. Men came into the room. They took him out.

The men taught him words, the sword, and honor. To hone his mind, body, and spirit they said.

The boy changed. He learned, sparred, and prepared for his duty.

Thinking of the duty made him uneasy. That feeling grew as he grew.

There was once a boy.

Then one day, his duty came.
