||Enter, Ikasama
I walked through the lush forests, looking around. I was here for trouble; I craved the very reality of something strange to happen. Nevertheless, I was not one to openly declare my mischief upon the world. I looked out, simply, due to my natural essence—my senses alert. I came across a several buildings, none to my interest really, as I kept walking. It was a good day to train, but the problem was, I did not know what to train. I had nothing to guide me to what I wanted to train. I simply did not have the materials to needed to train. Upon walking through the vast village of where once my clan had been, or still is, I do not know—nor do I care. I simply wanted to train, and sell a few things so that I can be on my way to a good dinner. Walking amidst the falling leafs, I caught one as I let go. Eyes hidden behind those opaque, black glasses of mine, I watched the leaf silently fall onto Gaia.
Wondering where I might find a place to stay for the night—even though it was not quite night, it was always good to figure out where I sleep. There had been too many strangers around this town—and of those, I’m sure they are looking for the thrill of trouble like I am. But the only significant difference between those stupid, piece of trash ninjas and I, is the ability to know when to stop. These ninjas, clearly, do not know when to stop; for they go looking for trouble, and then, battle. It leads to a bigger battle, and then it gets bigger and bigger, to the point where they must go to war. Such it is the dirty business of this ridiculous so-called “politics”. Ah, anyway, forget those tedious thoughts, I wondered about something else—and then another, and another. Thoughts popping in and out, in and out, like groundhog, as I suddenly spot my interest at a vast dome that seemed to be from the old times.
I walked towards this vast dome that was positioned ten meters ahead of me. Within moments, I stood in front of broken glass doors as I opened it up. Walking straight into the darkness, there was, however, some light—though vaguely giving me a full view. My eyes were soon trained and used to the surrounding darkness as I was soon able to decipher the scenery around me. It seemed that this was symmetry, a place where one comes to respect the fallen warriors or those who have died in such an honorable way. I continued my exploration here, as the feeling of causing mischief grew stronger. A grin cracked through my lips, as I wondered what I would find here.
Stopping short, fifteen meters ahead of me was a large sharp spike that seemed to be the epicenter of this dome. A woman kneeled in front of it—and from her form; I guessed that she was praying to the unknown supernatural forces that are upon us. It could be that or those so-called gods. I walked towards her, slowly, my hands inside my long black cloak that fell down to my feet as I gripped the blades behind me. There was, indeed, no way of telling that this woman was innocent. She could be one of those putrid ninjas infected with this terrible disease that they call the law. “There is no need to be alert; I am of no harm to you.” The woman spoke, as I continued to walk towards her. I stood next to her, watching her face as she lifted it to me. She spoke, “You seem to be uneasy around me, is it my form of praying?” So, it was praying, interesting…
