  I find it darkly funny how Senpo Temple is basically a super evil version of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, complete with their own little oompa loompa minions.

  I'm still impressed on how Fromsoft build their lore so together to the point that even item location adds to it. If it wasn't for Vaati, I would've never fully appreciate the work they put in.

  &quot;Its impossible to reach the inner sanctum&quot;. <br>Single door between the monk and the inner sanctum: Am I a joke to you?

  Hey I&apos;m not sure if this is useful info, but in ancient Japan there were Buddhist monks that would seek immortality to await the Buddha&apos;s return. They would do this through a mummification process where they would fast and meditate for like 1000 days at a time. The monks would fast on this tree bark that had a toxic chemical that acted as a way to kill bacteria. And ironically the mountains they resided in had water springs that were contaminated with Arsenic. This his how the monks were able to mummify naturally because the toxin build up in their body would prevent bacteria and insects from trying to decompose the body. The high priest looks exactly like the real high priest that really made this technique famous. <br><br><br>While not Sekiro lore, maybe this can give you some extra leads on exploring the parallels with real Japanese lore. Seeing mummified Bhuddist monks that sought out immortality that look like real Bhuddist monks that did the same thing just really stood out to me. Anyway I hope this gives you some more homework to do :)

  I can proudly say that due to me being bad at Sekiro, I was able to get the Return ending on my first playthrough without a wiki due to my Rice addiction when I ran up against bosses.

  A big moment in the game for me was realizing the Rejuvenating Waters themselves must carry the centipede larvae. Seeing the luminescent worms on the fish carcass was rewarding as it further supported that idea. I was really happy to hear you had the same conclusion Vaati!
