“All of my life, and all of your lives, have come to this point. There is nowhere else to be but here. Nowhere else to live or die, but here. To be here now is the only thing that matters. So gather yourselves, gather all of your strength and all of your sweetness into an iron ball. For we will attack again and again. Until we reach and overcome their king, or we die in the attempt!”
