Snow was falling when he first understood what it meant to be a warrior.
Looking at the bodies of the only friends he ever had. the bodies of the
woman he loved and the woman he respected, he finally understood.
It wasn't fame, glory or riches. It was death, sacrifice and fighting for
what you believed in. It was bravery and courage, never giving up even when
all was lost. It was fighting to the death, and in your death serving as a
reminder to others to remain true.
Working in silence with newly acquired friends, Joxer understood that this
was not the end. rather a continuation. His life was not yet forfeit. He had
things to do.
