It has begun

Master Kaido turns his sight towards his disciple.

      Kaido: …If he wasn’t trained … you would have been in his beak right now!

Kaido knows Rukh was being humorous, but as a Master, he prefers to limit the humor, when he is in the presence of disciples! Typical for a master RedShield! When with disciples, the seriousness of the danger is above humor.

      Rukh: I wasn’t serious master…

Holding the green ashdion blade in his hands, admiring its emerald aspect, a question is raised!

      Rukh: Master Kaido, why are there only twelve of these kinds of weapons allowed on PANGAEA?

      Kaido: That, my friend…

Kaido points,with his hand, to the sword.

      Kaido: …is the rarest and most powerful material in this star system. It has only been able to be mined in the heart of the Olympus Mountain back on MARS. The number symbolizes the High RedShields who participated in the galactic war, millions of years ago.

      Rukh: But every RedShield who had completed their training is rewarded with a combat ashdion knife, yes?

      Kaido: I completed my training, but I am not allowed to bring ashdion on PANGAEA. My weapon remains on MARS! The blade is imperishable, resistant to any forms of degradations! It can cut almost through anything and its destruction doesn’t come with ease!

Amazed by the might of the sword and filled with wonder of what capabilities the GreenSquare blacksmiths must have to forge such a grace of a weapon, Rukh dares to question their reason!

      Rukh: We shoot plasma, bolts of intense energy, from our upper vambrace! This weapon is primitive! We don’t win wars with this brute, non essential approach! But yet, it is forbidden! Yet, anyone can spar with it!

      Kaido: Why would a GreenCircle spar with it? He completed his White Training many years ago … One might ask, why does a Green practice the Shield arts?

      Rukh: Green canton … they don’t know the arts of war!

      Kaido: Every graduate of White Training knows discipline, self-care, hand-to-hand combat, survival, weapon knowledge and use!
