How ironic that you met your demise at your pupil’s sword, laid down by the skill you taught her.
Although there was a master who had bestowed the art of swordsmanship, that individual may or may not be part of the Blade Lineage.
An unruly group of sword bearers brandishing their weapons as they please, too disorderly to simply be called “free”.
If one had to find a word that tied them together, it would be “survival”.
They chose the blade as a way of life…
And, whoever impedes their survival is greeted with severing violence. It’s a trait that most members of the Blade Lineage share.

…If there is an obstacle, I will strike it down.
The child’s eyes shone with determination.
