In The Order of Assassins, I created a weapon unlike any other—a dagger capable of inflicting death without leaving a single visible mark.
It’s silent. Unseen. But devastating.
That idea didn’t come from nowhere.
So much of what we fight today is invisible.
The battle to be admired.
The war for significance.
The unseen pressure to achieve, impress, or belong.
And behind it? The heavy shadow of anxiety, depression, loss, shame, and spiritual fatigue.
That’s what Ghost Blade represents—
The emotional and spiritual injuries that go deep, but don’t always leave scars you can see.
Sometimes these wounds come from others.
Sometimes from life itself.
Sometimes we carry them without even knowing where they started.
But here’s the beautiful paradox:
These invisible battles often shape us the most.
In a world obsessed with constant improvement, maybe it’s our pain—not our perfection—that holds the key to real growth.
So don’t be surprised by the presence of Ghost Blade in The Order of Assassins.
It’s more than a weapon.
It’s a symbol.
A reminder that the things that try to break us may actually be shaping us for something far greater.
