So, here you are... Bone dry and bottle empty... A cogless, meshless automaton... With only your hands to give death to men.. You have forged your body into a weapon, In the fire of your will You have learned many new things, And acquired many new skills... Now you are strong Now you know what a can be done, That now, you can do it. But, it is not enough merely to know. Now you stand upon the threshold of knowledge. One must dare,

Now that you are safe. One must be silent. To become a Ninja, Learn more ways to heal, Rather than kill. Avoid, rather than check, Check rather than block, Block, rather than strike, Strike, rather than harm, Harm rather than kill, Kill rather than be killed. Only when all avenues of escape have been exhausted, Is the use of Force justified The taking of a life does no one honor, Nor can any be replaced
