You think everything will go as planned, but you’ll realize you’re wrong. Sooner or later, unexpected things will happen to you, people will shake your trust with malicious intent. Relationships trapped beneath the rubble will teach you valuable lessons from where they lie. Step by step, you’ll have to evade all enemy fighters and inflict significant damage upon them. You must leave such marks on them that they’ll never dare enter the arena with you again, reminded of your harsh lessons every time they see their scars. While all this happens, start considering what you might lose, what you’re willing to sacrifice. List your priorities and the things you can leave behind. Reserve a wall in your home for notes and design wallpaper for it that you won’t regret later. You can’t foresee what will confront you, so set aside your optimistic assumptions and gather your strength to be ruthless. Memorize the keys for secret power moves and lethal strikes within the game, and focus on the stage to uncover hidden messages left by the creators.
I know you feel comfortable, as if the fight only has a few rounds left, but I’m sorry to tell you there are dozens of rounds yet to come. Each round will feature beings eager to stand against you, each with unique powers and supernatural words. Behind the scenes, hidden within this bloody set, they await their turns, warming up their muscles. Creatures you’ve yet to encounter—terrifying enough to make you freeze or nearly soil yourself—are fueled by the scent of your sweat. They’re waiting for you to become just as ruthless as they are; they’ll appear when you’ve sharpened all your teeth. They’re not waiting for you to make it a fair fight—they’re simply delaying for their own entertainment.
