He was four years old the first time his father tied armor on him.

 

“It's too tight!” he cried as his father pulled the ties tighter, forcing his back up straight, tightening around his chest. It was heavy, even for a child's armor. The weight of it settled awkwardly on his hips with a soft creak of leather. He felt like he might topple over under the heaviness.

 

“A warrior cannot have his armor slipping off in battle. Your enemy will not stop for you to tighten it up. You must keep this on until I tell you to take it off.” his father's deep voice boomed in his ears.

 

“I don't want to wear this!” he whined.

 

His father gave no response as he tossed a practice sword to him. “Begin your katas.” He said, as he walked out of the door.
