Prisimeni kosmin dsn? Toks tok traukia. Tiesiog bk koks esi: ramus, viesus ir giedras. Kai leidiame suvisti visai savo esybei, kai kiekvien minut klausiame savs, ar i tikro norime taip elgtis ir darome tai tik atsak sau "Taip", tuomet savaime atstumiame nuo savs tuos, kurie nieko i ms negali imokti, ir pritraukiame ne tik gebanius mokytis i ms, bet ir tuos, i kuri patys turime k perimti.

Ye are most strong, ye Sons of the icy North, of the far East, far marching from your rugged Eastern Wildernesses, hither-ward from the gray Dawn of Time! Ye are Sons of the Jotun-land; the land of Difficulties Conquered. Difficult? You must try this thing. Once try it with the understanding that it will and shall have to be done.
