Fear meant his mind was sharp.As he stepped forward boldly, a sign of his confidence in his own strength, bright rays of morning sunlight glistened and danced across his midnight black armour. Honour, loyalty, courage: these were the values of the samurai, and they meant more to him than anything.It was time…

frequently felt like the world was against

them, yet they somehow found a

way to harness nature’s offerings.

It may be far from what most people

would call ‘civilisation’, but it

suited the Smiths just fine…
