In a dimly lit dojo, a Japanese samurai stands in meditation, his authentic armor gleaming under the faint light of a burning incense stick. Around him, cultural artifacts from ancient Japan are scattered: an intricately carved wooden mask, a delicate porcelain vase, and a rustling bamboo mat. The samurai's katana rests in its sheath beside him, waiting for the call to battle. As he closes his eyes, images of church spires and stained-glass windows dance across his mind, reminding him of the divine power within himself that fuels his strength and determination.
