Way of the Edgeless Sword
VoidDescrição
The wise know that it is not the blade that cuts, but the swordmaster. After all, the Tao of Shinsei teaches that weapons are simply another tool, no more sacred than a harvesting thresher or plow. The monk runs their hand along an object, channeling ki into it and transforming it into a killing edge, even if it appears to be nothing more than a common stick, a wooden sword, or their wizened hand.
