[Bloodborne #8] About A Girl (Equal Stats Challenge: Lady Maria + Fishing Hamlet)

I take a few hours to beat Lady Maria.

Resuming on the doorstep of the Astral Clocktower, I attempt Lady Maria's fight using the Holy Moonlight Sword, do alright, but run out of vials and bullets.  I give in and using the funny Chalice Dungeon to farm Blood Echoes (but only for vials and bullets), and manage to defeat her using Ludwig's Holy Blade buffed with the Empty Phantasm Shell, which is sadly a better "Arcane weapon" than the HMS for me.  I then proceed through the Fishing Hamlet with some difficulty, especially against the Shark Giants, and even more especially against the two Shark Giants guarding the Rakuyo.  Further struggles against Orphan of Kos lead to me taking a quick break to go back and fight Laurence, the First Vicar, instead, whose fight becomes much easier with Simon's Bowblade.  I continue attempting Orphan, using the Chikage and a better rune setup (not 3 Moon runes), and while I do not win, I get close.  Turns out I could've been backstabbing him and I just didn't know.
