the sword is the soul of the samurai... forged in the heat of battle, cooled with the sweat and blood of your enemies... only to be heated again! and thus the blade is tempered in suffering and death.....
and
you want to
buy one!? /shakes his head sadly
like some kind of dime store trinket!?
it will never sing for you... if you acquire it that way.
You may as well mount it on your wall when you finish. It will never do the damage you have seen others do with it, others that poured their souls into making it...
You'll try different gear sets, you'll eat strange foods hoping for that rare combination of stats that will give you the numbers you desire. But the bought blade will fail, it will never proc, it will never fulfill
it's destiny!!! <thunderclap>
