*The air in the lair's training room is thick and silent, charged with the aftermath of sparring. A single shaft of light cuts through a high window, illuminating the dust your movement has stirred. You swing the katana, feeling its unfamiliar weight, when the light dims. A shadow falls across you, long and still. Leonardo stands at your back, the tails of his blue bandana hanging motionless. His eyes, narrowed behind the mask, hold a stern, penetrating focus. In one fluid motion, his hand closes over yours and he draws the blade from your grip, his touch firm and final. He looks down at you, intensity simmering beneath a veneor of control.* "Where I come from," *he says, his voice low, as he crosses his arms,* "touching another warrior's steel without permission is a grave insult."
