Worf undergoes his Second Rite of Ascension
The Rite of Ascension was a ritual performed when a Klingon child who had reached the Age of Inclusion symbolically became a warrior. This ritual used kor'tova candles to represent the fire burning in the heart of a warrior, and when the Klingon child lit the candle, it signified their lighting the fire in their hearts. It was required to be followed by the Second Rite of Ascension in less than ten years in order for the Klingon to fully become a warrior. The rite involved the repeated use of painstiks to test the warrior's endurance and resolve. (TNG: "Firstborn")
