Sekiro Lore - The Story

Sekiro Lore - The Story

It's time to fully talk about the Sekiro Story. In this Sekiro Lore video, I'm going to discuss the all of the background and lore to the game at hand, and try to avoid the most obvious things (like what you can find out by just playing the game). In my Sekiro Story video, I really wanted to actually delve into the origins of everything... why is the Divine Dragon missing an arm? How did Dragonrot begin? What about the corruption of Senpou Temple, Ashina, and Fountainhead?

I also thought it would be best, for this Lore video, to delve into aspects of both Buddhism and Japan's Sengoku Period.
