The Art of Swords
From Summoner
Representing aggression, force, ambition, courage and misfortune, the minor arcanum of Swords is favored by the Nobility, not because of the powerful symbol of a sword, but for the adversity that the arcanum represents. By accepting those failings and shortcoming in themselves, they overcome them and find strength. By mastering adversity, struggle, reason, and will, they learn to exploit the weaknesses of their foes. If such a weakness isn't present, they'll just have to create one for their purposes.
