'few could understand, fewer could dare to dance along that thin line, that infinitesimal threshold between life and death, that one breath separating the doomed from the miraculous.
this recent monastic tradition, born from catastrophes, heartache and horrors, vengeful coping mechanisms and resilience however finds its strength is such thin spans of time, through a long, meticulous and cautious study of the moment, both experienced and observed so that each would understand, grasp and harness it's properties.
what results is the long death, a vicious, vengeful art ensuring that one would refuse with all their might to cross the threshold while forcing whomever wronged them through it.'


aaand that's the monastic tradition of the long death done ^w^
