In the Codes of the Warriors, there is a saying: Be strong and do as you will.
The swords of others will set your limits ...
"Within the circle of each man's sword," say the Codes of the Warrior,
"therein is each man an Ubar."
"Steel is the coinage of the Warrior," say the Codes,
"With it he purchases what pleases him."
