Why are you called a mountain, grandfather?

Tsuchiya Sohachiro You know the master's banner. What is printed there?
Swift as the wind... Quiet as a forest... Fierce as fire... Immovable as a mountain.
Tsuchiya Sohachiro The lord is that mountain. Both in battle and at home, he is steadfast, like a mountain. When his army advances, first the horsemen attack, swift as the wind. Second, the lancers raise a forest of spears, advancing with silent resolve. Third, more horsemen engulf the enemy ranks, as mercilessly as fire. And the lord is always behind them, watching over them, immovable as a mountain. That is why our army, from general to foot soldier, can fight so resolutely... Immovable as a mountain. The lord is that mountain. So we call him "the mountain."
