Welcome.
Winning a battle requires many skills, and winning a war requires ALL skills.
So, rather than pick up a sword, I decided to find a different way to contribute to the war. So I began to study explosives.
Granted, it's not the safest profession--in some ways it's more dangerous than going to battle, but now people treat me as a specialist.
I'm respected, and I'm helping to win battles. What more could anyone want? Oh, you might not want to stand so close to those barrels....
