I actually beat the Vanguard Demon! With the Royal (Level 1) character no less!

I seriously didn't expect a second area to wipe the floor with me in a scripted death sequence. Remember folks, Scripted Death =/= Actual Death. That one doesn't show up in the Nexus report as you keep your souls. Dying is a tutorial in and of itself.

Fun question arose in the Souls lore: Are souls Solid, Liquid, or Gas? You can pick them up and put them in your pocket so they seem to be a solid object. But where you can consume them and they're vapours given off by enemies, it makes me wonder if they're a gas. Or, if you drink the soul, is it a liquid?

They tend to retain an orb-like appearance in the inventory so I assume they're like materia.

Death Count: 01.

And that was caused by an awkward jump off a Nexus wall which led me plummeting to my death while trying to get an item. Still counts as a death, but at least it's more about getting launched sideways off a platform than from battle. It's somehow less insulting to die to weird physics than it is to die in battle.
