i heard a hush-hush story about knights who used to fence with shining swords; it was like a secret dance they did before battles to diminish their fears and prepare for the challenges ahead. my friend told me, but we had to promise not to tell anyone else, so it's our little secret. they had a special specification for their swords and techniques that they would re-establish every time they practiced, to make sure they were ready for anything. it's like they had magic words that made them stronger, but they had to keep it a secret, or the magic might disappear.
