Feeling of Entrapment

You're feeling trapped, blinded, unable to take action because all your swords are stuck in the ground and they seem too difficult to pull out.

Perception vs. Reality

But those ropes aren't very tight, and with just a little struggle they'd fall right off. Don't surrender to hopelessness and negativity.

Empowerment to Overcome

You might have made some mistakes that have gotten you here, but you have the skills you'll need to get yourself out of this situation.
