The Weight of Duty

The samurai kneels between two deaths. His child's fever burns through the night while his

lord rides to battle at dawn. Honor demands he choose only one to save.

But here's what the scrolls never taught him: duty isn't about choosing the right path.

It's about living with the weight of the one you take. He knows whichever door he walks through,

part of him dies in the other room. That's the real test. Not the choice itself,

but whether you can carry what it costs. So what duty are you avoiding right

now? Not because it's wrong, but because you're afraid of what it

will cost you to finally choose.
