055. Warrior of Light

The warrior of light recognizes the silence that precedes an important battle.

And that silence seems to be saying: ‘Things have stopped. Why not forget about fighting and enjoy yourselves a little.’ At this point, inexperience combatants lay their arms and complain that they are bored.

The warrior listens to that silence; somewhere something is happening. He knows that devastating earthquakes arrive without warning. He has walked through forest at night and knows that it is precisely when the animals are silent that danger is near.

While the others talk, the warrior trains himself in the use of the sword and keeps his eye on the horizon.
