"Although I have only lived for seventeen years, I am certain that if we did not live to serve, if it were not for loyalty, if we did not sacrifice our selfish desires, if there were no warrior code, if there were no samurai to lead by example, we would all be lost, wandering the plains of hell in total emptiness.
"My name is Daiki, son of Oishi Kuranosuke of Ako and this will be my last time wielding a pen."
The preceding excerpt is from 47 Ronin, by Dimetrios Manolatos.
