A card in the middle position indicates what is affecting your question at this time.
Meaning: How are "victory" and "defeat" both keywords for this card? Swords are truth, and sometimes truth isn't always black and white. Such is the case here. There seems to be a victor, but at what cost? He seems to have made enemies, an action he may come to rue. The Five of Swords indicates that the whole situation is cloudy, and what might seem like the right action may not be. Try to see the whole picture and future consequences before going in for the "win."
Reversed: a Pyrrhic victory, dishonor
