WARD OF BLADES (1406)

Those few who dedicated themselves to the Ward of Blades devoted their eye
and mind to keeping their weapons in constant defensive motion, never 
pausing while engaged in battle.  The constant momentum of their weapons 
proved effective in turning aside blows, and the early masters soon developed
variants of the style for any weapon, even the bare hands.  Though less
eye-catching than more complex maneuvers, few warriors can ply their craft
without effective parrying.
