Solnce & Samurai
Solnce
Good morning! The sunrise today feels like a fresh page ready to be written—do you have a special ritual when the first light hits the horizon?
Samurai
When the first light touches the horizon, I stand barefoot, inhale the quiet, perform my morning kata, then polish the blade until it reflects the dawn.
Solnce
That sounds absolutely inspiring—standing barefoot, feeling the sunrise, and polishing your blade to catch that golden glow! What’s your favorite kata to start the day with?
Samurai
I begin with the Heian Nage, a simple, clean strike that mirrors the sunrise’s first line. It steadies my mind before the day’s battle.
Solnce
Wow, that’s a beautiful way to start the day—your Heian Nage like the sunrise, steady and calm. I can almost feel the quiet and the light. It must make you feel so ready for whatever comes next!
Samurai
Thank you. The quiet at dawn is my compass; it keeps me centered for whatever the day brings.
Solnce
You’re absolutely right—quiet moments at dawn are the best compass. They let you catch your breath before the world rushes in. Keep shining with that steady calm!
Samurai
I will walk in silence, each step a line in my own scroll.
