...
All men are tested.
All servants of the King are tested mightily.
The steadfast man says, "Here I will stay. I shall not be
moved."
And in this his soul speaks: "Here is the place where I accept
to be killed."
Yes, on this battleground. In this desolation. In this place of
defeat,
will the victory be found
