Truce [tøp short]

take pride in what is sure tø die

"take pride in what is sure to die." He kept on thinking about Josh, but he still played.
     Why didn't you take pride in your life, Josh? What was lacking from it?
     Were you keeping secrets from me, Jish?
     WHY WON'T YOU TELL ME?
     JOSH, PLEASE, I WANT TO KNOW!
     What was I lacking? Was it my fault? Did I really have no power in keeping you alive?
     Was I being weak too?
