      There's guilt but there's also joy. Sif is with his master now, way I see it, Sif wanted to see if you are worthy enough to travel the abyss, he fights valiantly, you prove your worthy, he dies peacefully knowing you will be safe, and he will be with his master soon.

    I'm playing Dark Souls for the first time after watching a livestream of the game. I didn't pay attention to how Sif handled the sword at the time, but now knowing that Artorias was left handed, I realized that when Sif picks up the sword, she flips it around so the blade is on her left side.
    Sif fights left handed because Artorias fought left handed.

    Damn it. I was hoping there was a way to complete the game without hurting Sif. I actually stopped playing 2/3 through the battle when she starts limping and making sloppy attempts at attacking. I haven’t played since… My wife and I rescue dogs (and have been for the past 15 years). We currently have 9 in our home as of writing this. 2 Belgian Malinois (1 male, 1 female), A German Shepherd (female), A Rhodesian Ridgeback (male), 2 Pit Bulls (both female), A boxer (male), An ebony Chow Chow (female) and a Presa Canario (male). Both of the Belgians are “retired” military dogs and the Shepherd came from the PA State Police. I know it sounds sappy, but the bond between a human and their dog can run deeper than family ties ever could. The thought of Sif guarding her owner’s resting place was such a display of loyalty and love that I literally couldn’t find it in myself to harm her. I guess I’ll never finish the game because even if it is just a game, I can’t bring myself to do it. I could care less about humans because they can protect themselves, communicate, etc., but dogs can’t. I’d let 100 people die to save my dogs and I’ve already witnessed that my dogs are willing to give their lives for me. We had an idiotic methhead attempt to break into our home at 02:15 just after Christmas. He did he make it in through the window, but was immediately met by roughly 1,000 pounds of pissed off dogs. He reportedly needed 328 stitches and remained in hospital for 2 weeks due to his injuries. The asshole stabbed my Malinois 7 times, but she never even whimpered and absolutely refused to let go of the intruder. I apologize for the lengthy comment, I got a little worked up thinking back to the initial encounter with Sif.

    But Sif chose to fight even after realizing you saved him - he probably would have let you get the item you needed if he realized it was necessary to beat the abyss
    Or maybe he realized and was trying to stop you from meeting the same fate as his master, either way his loyalty to Artorias comes first

    I love how in every souls game basically, you fight these legendary heroes and stuff, but you only win because they are nerfed as shit, artorias got his main hand broken, malenia in elden ring is basically dead, made mostly of prosthesis and being consumed by scarlet rot which caused her to become blind, gwyn at the end of ds1 is not nearly as strong as he was when he took down the dragons, etc.

    The reason Sif wanted to kill you still was not because he didn't like you but in fact he wanted to save you because he thought you would go to the abyss and get consumed by the darkness....just like Artorias. He didn't want you to suffer the same fate Artorias did, the howl he did was basically telling you to forgive him. I'm sorry that I added additional feels to this 😢

    Dark souls in general pulls A LOT of inspiration from the manga Berserk. Maybe a little TOO much. Artorious being one of the biggest inspirations. The parallels between him and Guts are almost identical. Man fights tooth and nail against the darkness and loses an arm trying to protect someone they love. Also Artorious’s armor and the Berserk armor share a a lot of similarities as well..

    I just thought about it but, If you decide to become a darkwraith you cannot get this cutscene (unless ng+) You need to place the lordvessel on alter to unlock duke's for DLC pendant but you also need the abysswalker ring to go down to kaathe to place the vessel.
    If you agree with frampt instead and place it, kaathe never appears. It's cannon, darkwraiths are too evil to be emotional!

I was like “sorry boys, but if you want to do everything together, then one of you is not getting what you want” lol
