Text: Narration: In this world, our world, we must all be aware of those we love, of those we hate, and those we fear. All must be protected and defended in equal measure as we balance our lives and self against our obligations and charges.

Frame 2: Text: Narration: When men are given power over those weaker, they have assumed the responsibility of protection, guidance and advancement. It is his duty to one day pass that power on to those who he has led.

Frame 3: Text: Narration: We have such power, and we defend our own against the darkness, monsters, nay sayers, and defilers. We fight these, our monsters, for love.

Frame 4: In the bottom left where the last square would be we get a good view of the cowboy/sherrif's face and profile. He is sitting on his mount on a precipice looking over a smallish western style village. On the far end of the village we see a speck in blue riding in.

Text: Narration: And sometimes, we fight others with power, who wish to take ours for themselves.

Frame 1 Scene: A youth on a swift, lean horse is racing up a hill.

Frame 2 Scene:The youth rears up on his horse to a sharp stop near the Sherrif/Cowboy/Gerrik's horse. He is shouting.

Frame 3 The boy stops on the other side of the horse and sees Gerrik kneeling over a sheep who has gone into labor. Gerrik: “Taylor, not so loud!”

Frame 4 The frame is zoomed in on the half bird baby lamb in Gerrik's hand. It is small and possibly premature. Taylor: “Gerrik, sir, A man from the federation has come into town. He is looking for...”

Frame 5: Te lamb has been placed near its mother's teet and is gently suckling Taylor:”... a meeting with the elders. I was sent to bring you in as fast as I could.” Frame 6: Gerrik has mounted his horse. In this frame we see both him and Taylor on horseback. Gerrik's horse is now revealed to be obviously cybernetic. His hands fit into controls on the horses neck and head. Gerrik: “Well let's see what he has to offer us.”
