    A drawn sword is sharp and gleaming; sheathed, it embodies the spirit of the martial world. The crisp sound of bamboo swords clashing holds the focus honed through countless trials; the arc of a bent knee and turn reveals reverence for the "Way." Not every swing of the sword is for victory or defeat; sometimes it's a contest with oneself—every breath, every steady step, is forging a more resilient soul.
