Many thoughts plagued my mind. Thoughts that had emerged before, thoughts that had threatened my way of life before. And now, they did again; I couldn’t help but question the path I took. Not because I had any doubts that I was fighting for the wrong purpose, but because I doubted I was fighting for it on the right side. That any sides existed at all was purposeless and only lead to conflict, and by taking a side I only fueled the flames which drove the endless process.
Shaking my head, I attempted to clear the thoughts from my mind, as if whipping my head about would throw them from it. My concentration returned to the passing greenery around me and my legs, which landed against the tough bark of an outstretched branch before pumping my body forward. It was an instinctive process now, to travel as I did, which required little thought at all. Due to this, I hadn’t realized quite how far I’d come. Previously, I’d found myself in Tetsu no Kuni--the land of iron and samurai, where the exams were held. Now the lush greenery of Hi no Kuni was enveloping me, and I couldn’t help but feel a bit more at home.
