The shield is not for defending yourself.
It shows you how to defend the others.
It does not want to harm.
It is not made for that.
It is only a desire.
A will.
It sharpens your senses.
Look at your enemy.
And crush them to the ground.
This is not the shield.
When you look at the shield, you are looking at me.
I am the shield.
