"We are not part of the Kusari Empire. Do not bow, you show respect by actions, not meaningless gestures. If you are to do a gesture, do not make it as meaningless as a bow." Sasha snapped.

Even a defeat can turn into a victory if handled correctly. We gain victories, but we also gain defeat. Do you have the motivation, the will, to fight for the Revolution, despite every setback, every hopeless battle? Can we count on you, in the time that we need you to face death in the face and fight on?"
