Great one Cerulean! Thanks for helping in these threads...i thought everybody had forgotten this wonderful deck!
You saw the card in the way the story in the LWB goes - kinda backwards (from 10 to 1). Really amazing, as my interpretation was always, let's say, from 1 to 10...so the ace would be the beginning - instead of laying the swords, you are taking it from the rock. I had never thought about this Ace from that point of view, thanks for bringing it

But you see, it can be a cycle...you take the sword, you fight, you realize that violence only brings violence, you get wiser, you realize it's time to lay
down the sword...until you are once again called for a battle you can't escape.
I really love this deck!
