D'Artagnan proves he is a capable fighter by wounding Jussac and helping Athos. The only more impressive fighter is Aramis, who manages to handle two men at once. The fight bonds d’Artagnan to the musketeers, and from this moment forward, they become good friends. As it turns out, d’Artagnan’s father’s advice to fight all the time had some merit. Every time d’Artagnan had the opportunity, he chose to fight rather than run, and as a result, he is now on the path to becoming a musketeer.
