Meti’s Sword Manual
Mastering the sword
1. YISUN’s glory is great, and you may know this by two paths, the sanctioned words, and the sanctioned action
2. The sanctioned words are YS ATN VARAMA PRESH. The meaning of these words is YISUN and their attainment is Royalty.
3. The sanctioned action is to Cut.
4. To Cut means division by the blade of Want, that parer of potentials that excises infinities.
5. To train with the sword, first master sweeping. When you have mastered sweeping, you must master the way of drawing water. Once you have learned how to draw water, you must split wood. Once you have split wood, you must learn the arts of finding the fine herbs in the forest, the arts of writing, the arts of paper making, and poetry writing. You must become familiar with the awl and the pen in equal measure. When you have mastered all these things you must master building a house. Once your house is built, you have no further need for a sword, since it is an ugly piece of metal and its adherents idiots.
The 18 Precepts
1. Consider: there is no such thing as a sword.
2. Your stance must be wide. You must not be spare with the fluidity of your wrists or shoulders. You must have grip on the handle that is loose and unstrained. I heard it said you must be tender with your sword grip, as though with a lover. This is patently false. A sword is not your lover. It is a hideous tool for separating men from their vital fluids.
3. Going onwards, you must adjust hands as needed, do not keep the blade close to your body, keep your breathing steady. This is the life cut. You must watch your footwork. Your feet must be controlled whether planted on fire, air, water, or earth in equal measure.
4. Breathing is very important! Is the violent breath of life in you not hot? Exhale! Exult!
5. You must strive for attachment-non-attachment when cutting. Your cut must be sticky and resolute. A weak, listless cut is a despicable thing. But you must also not cling to your action, or its result. Clinging is the great error of men. A man who strikes without thought of his action can cut God.
6. To cut properly, you must continually self-annihilate when cutting. Your hand must become a hand that is cutting, your body a body that is cutting, your mind, a mind that is cutting. You must instantaneously destroy your fake pre-present self. It is a useless hanger on.
7. A brain is useful only up until the point when you are faced with your enemy. Then it is useless. The only truly useful thing in this cursed world is will. You must suffuse your worthless body with its terrible heat. You must be so hot that even if your enemy should strike your head off, you shall continue to decapitate ten more men. Your boiling blood must spring forth from your neck and mutilate the survivors!
8. You must never make ‘multiple’ cuts. Each must be singular in its beauty, no matter how many precede it. You must make your enemies weep with admiration, and likewise should your head be shorn off by such an object of beauty, you must do your best to shed tears of respect.
9. When decapitating an enemy, it is severe impoliteness to use more than one blow.
There’s our heroine, oblivious to what has been said between the great Seven. She looks quite determined. Perhaps the King had some words of courage for her.
Regarding Meti’s manual, well..while I can see it being useful in certain situations, I doubt it’s very adequate for beginners.
Truly, I am going to agree with whoever said this is either a very good or very bad sword manual. Precepts number 8 and 9 speak to me in their wisdom.
I’m pumped that we’re nearing the end of the first ‘book’. Truly, this has been a prolonged prologue.
Foolish blasphemies sputtered by bitter arrogance. Only those seeking misdirection and disappointment countenance Meti’s counsel, for beyond a blade’s practical applications her words are spite-filled and hateful.
Better to master resilient destruction through disciplined slaughter than divert your focus to smattering insight.
Meti’s Wisdom are truly gifts for the mind, Pree Abl’ghast, as he is one of the few masters who realize how pointless such hunks of sharpened iron are, as a true master need not even carry a weapon, they need merely speak and men cower before them, as the threat of violence has always been more potent than violence itself.
It is not the sword that cuts. It is want that separates flesh from bone, not sinew and steel.
Meti, and her student in her time, are the greatest masters of sword art in the multiverse. They both hate swords and swordfighting with a single-minded passion that could murder the gods. The sword manual could either teach you to do the same or to do anything else; it’s either very good or very bad depending on what you consider the better option.
I got chills. But where is Mr. Steal Your World?
Our hero taking on her role more and more with eyes wide open
Question on the Keys. I’m under the impression that the creation of the Keys of Kings predates the Pact of the Seven Part World, meaning that there are many many more keys than the ones possessed by the seven + alice. Are beings other than the seven able to have them? Or have the seven simply plucked all other keys from their owners save Zoss’s? Also, we know the Universal War had seven VICTORS, but are there any demiurges who survived but did not rule? Such questions I pose to the beautiful cloud of avian knowledge.
Look to those with a cruciform gleam on their brow.
Our dear Allison has gone through the second crucible of form, and her second gate of correspondence. But how many times has she experienced a reforging of the mind? That is a very good question. Perhaps, though, she has finally approached the first tier of purpose.
Her quest of transformation and translation continues.
I wonder how much she’ll continue to change?
Also, great sword manual.
KBSD 4-80 -> KSBD 4-80 I think?
I totes read Thief of Time not long ago. That is one of my favourite quotes you put in there! xD
Praise YISUN, soon the great journey of blood and prophecy shall begin! Rejoice! Our death approaches!
She’s okay, but she’s still no Cio.
My following of the sacred path of Prim once took me to a place such as you describe. I quickly left, or, I did not.
In love and in glory
