Power Bear: Let’s try again, Magnus. What do you think strength is?

Magnus: Strength is, uh… being stronger than your opponent. Strength is… being strong enough.

Power Bear: Strong enough to do what?

Magnus: Win. Survive. I- I don’t know!

Griffin: He picks- he picks you up, Magnus, and, um, just kinda throws you to the ground, and he says-

Power Bear: You’re telling me what it is to be strong, that’s not what strength is. Why do you want to be strong, Magnus?

Magnus: So I don’t have to lose- anyone.

Power Bear: You want to protect your friends, is that right?

Magnus: They’re not strong enough. I have to be.

Power Bear: Strength is a tool, Magnus, it’s a commodity. You can spend it and spend it, but everyone’s got some, and lots of folks are gonna have more than you. But if you ask for it, Magnus, other folks’ strength can become your own. That is what strength is, Magnus. Who gives you strength, how willing are you to ask for it? Pride and glory are the enemies of true strength, Magnus.

[Places a paw on Magnus’ shoulder]

In every warrior’s life, there comes a moment where they are overpowered by a superior fighter. But you keep friends nearby, and you ask for help when you need it, Magnus, and you won’t just be strong. You’ll be unbeatable.
