Force and Forgiveness

The Warrior of the Light has the sword in his hands.

He is the one who decides what he will do and what he will never do.

There are moments when life leads him into a crisis and he is separated from things he has always loved; it is then that the Warrior reflects. He checks if he is fulfilling God's will or if he is merely acting selfishly. If this separation is really a part of his path, then he accepts it without complaint.

If, however, such a separation was provoked by someone else's perverse actions, then he is implacable in his response.

The Warrior possess both force and forgiveness. He can use both with equal skill.
