latlh De'/Additional Information
This is another way of saying that it is necessary to adhere strictly to the particulars of any procedure in order to achieve the desired goals. The proverb is phrased in terms of the details of Rite of Ascension, during which, as noted, warriors jab the Klingon youth with painstiks. It protocol is not followed---it this case, if painstiks are not used---the ceremony carries no import and the Age of Ascension has not been celebrated.
