Mastery of Discipline

In the season of life in which I passed through the Rain's Hand, more than 90 duels did I face to prove myself invincible. I learned the 38 grips, the 750 offensive and 1800 defensive stances, and the 9000 strikes that I would practice for all my future days.

With Onsi's blessing, the sword-singer must do the same to achieve Mastery of Discipline.

Mastery of Devotion

In the season of life in which I marched beneath the Sun's Height, before the power of the gods did I kneel. I dedicated myself wholly unto to the spirit of the sword to forge my Shehai, which I would wield for all my future days.

With Tall Papa's blessing, the sword singer must do the same to achieve Mastery of Devotion.

Mastery of Wisdom

In the season of life in which I was exposed to the Hearth's Fire, into deep contemplation did I withdraw to ponder the nature of truth. I sharpened my mind as my blade and defined the principles I would honor for all my future days.

With Tava's blessing, the sword-singer must do the same to achieve Mastery of Wisdom.

Mastery of Sacrifice

In the season of life in which I shivered from the Frost's Fall, so did I find myself called upon to cast aside the notions of my destiny that I had deemed true. I left the land of my home to which I did not return for all my future days.

Under Satakal's ever-changing influence, the sword-singer must do the same to achieve Mastery of Sacrifice.
