Recollections from Ashina


What I learned from beating Sekiro

  • You will find yourself returning to the same circumstances again and again to meet your fiercest challenges. These may well be direct repetitions of each other, but the experience will be different each time. The difference is the measure of your growth.
  • Most of what you will face will be scarcely as capable as you, but the ability to overcome one thing at one time is different from the ability to overcome many things at once. A single weak blow is nothing; a dozen weak blows at once are another thing entirely.
  • There are sometimes weird and terrible things when you reach the rarefied points of your journey. The obstacles you face in the far places will require new approaches.
  • Sometimes, loss is the necessary primer for a great blessing, and that is something to be grateful for.
  • You are never the first to start your path, but you may end up following a course that is all your own.
  • The most terrible and powerful things will not be monsters, but other men. The key to victory will lie in your ability to rise to the challenge, brace for impact, and use their own power against them.
  • Hesitation is defeat.
