“You will stay and help defend our cave against all comers, protect those weaker than yourself and honor our code. Always use the sword to stand for good and right, never do a thing you would be ashamed of, and never let your heart rule your mind ...

If not, hide the sword where only a true warrior who is brave of heart would dare to go and find it. Swear this to me, Martin.”
