1. This is my worst nightmare. I literally got up from my desk to lay down in my bed, questioning my life choices. The nine words mantra is back. It was challenging to translate it for the Nine Words True Bow, and I think the outcome was a mess because some of the words are connected. I can’t get a nine-word version in English to come out in a coherent manner; the grammatical forms are different while the order matters. For example, dou and zhe are actually connected - meaning a soldier/fighter. I can’t separate them and have it make sense because the first two words mean soldier/fighter as well. That’s 4 words meaning soldiers/fighters in the first four.  This time around, I’m just going to use pinyin. Trying to do an English version of them was too ambitious and I didn’t like the result

2. Lin (Overlook/celestial) Bing (Soldier) Dou (Soldier) Zhe (Man, modified by Dou so it’s Soldier) Jie (All) Zhen (Formation) Lie (Arrange, connected with Zhen) Qian (Front) Xing (Walk)

3. Dou also means War; Zhe means man, so it can also be Saint.

4. Lucidity called her Jiu Ning without the full t.i.tle, so she could have the same name and t.i.tle. Might have to change this later if we get her real name.
