The young mouse's eyes snapped open, clear and bright. He swung the ancient sword high and struck at the giant adder.He struck for Redwall!He struck against evil!He struck for Martin!He struck for Log-a-Log and his shrews!He struck for dead Guosim!He struck as Methuselah would have wanted him to!He struck against Cluny the Scourge and tyranny!He struck out against Captain Snow's ridicule!He struck for the world of light and freedom!He struck until his paws ached and the sword fell from them!

The young mouse, filled with determination, opened his eyes and raised an ancient sword against a fearsome opponent, the giant adder. He fought valiantly, embodying the spirit of Redwall and its legendary defender, Martin. His strikes symbolized a stand against evil, tyranny, and the mocking foes that threatened his home and allies, including Log-a-Log and the fallen Guosim. Each blow he delivered was not merely physical but a testament to his unwavering resolve and loyalty to his friends and their shared ideals.

With each swing, he drew strength from the legacy of those who fought before him. The young mouse committed himself to the battle that represented the struggle for freedom and light in a world darkened by enemies like Cluny the Scourge and Captain Snow. Though exhaustion set in and he eventually dropped the sword, his effort was a powerful declaration of his bravery and hope, striking not just at a physical foe but at the essence of oppression itself.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
