Prologue:

Son, do you know what’s the most precious thing in one man’s life?

Hmmm… Is it Power? Prestige? Honor?

No, my son. Think harder.

Ummm… I don’t know what you are talking about, dad?

Think harder. Every question has an answer, every puzzle has a solution, every tunnel has a way in and a way out. Find your way out. Well, think it this way, what is your most precious thing?

Umu… I think that’s mom… and you too.

Haha! Now, you get it, you idiot. The most precious thing in a man or a woman’s life isn’t wealth, fortune, fame or power. Its family and honor.

Wrong dad! you just said that honor isn’t the correct option, so, how come you're telling me that honor is precious?

Well, honor is … a bit complicated. You see, it’s a bit like emotions. Humans stick to their honor when they feel like it and don’t when they don’t like it. But, it goes without asking that a man must stick to his honor at all times. But, if you're asking about what’s most precious, I would say, that it comes second, after family.

Hmmm… I don’t understand dad.

What is it, son?

You always said that honor is a man’s pride and that one must protect it at the cost of his life, so how come you're saying that it’s not more precious than his family?

Haha son, you got me there. Indeed, I mentioned it, but … well, let’s just say that I made a mistake there, son. Always, remember that family is the most precious thing in this world.

Never lose it, son.

Never lose it, never lose it….

Dad!

Dad!

What is happening? W-what is – dad!!! dad!! DAD!!!
