I tracked my deaths to Sister Friede. She mercilessly killed me 43 times, giving her a higher kill count than practically any other boss in a Fromsoft game. Never once did a death make me feel cheated. Each time, I felt more inspired to get my ass handed to me. It was my destiny to kill her. Every minute I spent fighting her felt like a dance against death - a beautiful battle against my selfish hubris. My heart pounded whenever I inched closer to seeing her die by my hand. I first fought her before beating the base game, and yet I didn't beat her until two days after I beat the Soul of Cinder. Sister Friede is a landmark when it comes to Fromsoft bosses.
