I didn't bother to add the "Warriors Creed" to the story because I didn't think it would fit the flow of the moment. Still, someone pointed out that this might be a good place to add it for those of you who don't know what I was talking about.
The Warriors Creed
Do not hurt where holding is enough;
Do not wound where hurting is enough;
Do not maim where wounding is enough;
And kill not where maiming is enough;
The greatest warrior is one who does not need to kill.
Stephen R. Donaldson
