Section A13 Chapter 1 of 2
The Concept of SOUL
There is no real steel in the blade of a sword
Nor staff nor bow nor axe
There is no real power in the might of a man
Nor monster nor machine nor a 'god'
We have a new boundary above the broken one
So the things relied on are almost meaningless
Unless we are able to become one
With the mind, body and SOUL
That even inheriting the discipline may be pointless
But needed for the origin to live.
You see, History is a very strange thing
It comes from the future to change every
Thing that is present before
It returns to the past where it forgotten
Until something happens to remind us of
What had happened before
Like nothing is new under the sun.
The future transforms the world
Into the unexpected. The legends we know
Are also the legend after them(selves).
The swords that were lost
Are also the tools we use today. And
The changes from before, will continue to change us
But…
One needs to have the tools to fight and survive
One needs to have the will to fight and survive
One needs to have a SOUL to feel that they can
Change all these things despite everything being the same
To try to cross the next boundary and enter the future
And finally break the loop of this world

"The legend will never die" they said.
Why can't people remember why it was there to begin with?
If conflict is always happening, despite her changes
Why can't it end? This tale of souls and swords
…
The concept of SOUL is
The two crossing.
Figure out the meaning behind this.
"Wait a second. This is a not a poem."
"Didn't you read the cover of the book, moron! This is the so-called 'Concept of SOUL' people were curious about."
"Yeah, but people speculated that this is might be a poem of hidden meaning. It might relate to – "
"The legendary swords? Yeah I know."
"That's my line!"
"Not only that. It also relates to what happened to the world a long, long time ago."
Jareid closes the book with a sigh following. He looks straight at the immensely stylized stained-glass window in the dark. "You know, that was the one of the biggest changes in the entire universe. Not only was matter changed, but even the spiritual and moral stuff changed too. Who could have thought that such a rare document could prophesize the fate of our generation?"
Tetsuko folds her arms, looking at him as if he is a joke. "You know we don't know when this was written, and technically it is not 'our' generation."
"Stop making me look like a dummy"
"You ARE a dummy."
"Just read between the lines. We may be see this as stupid sh*t from sometime or somewhere we have no idea but it has managed to prove itself right."
"Where now?"
"Come on, Tetsuko. Haven't learnt anything here? This document was well written for a reason. And if he knows what happened from today and on, then he would know the future after."
"So that means that he is basically – "
"Yes! He is like HER!"
"(I thought you were going to say a time traveler, but Al-Virtua kinda works too.) [sigh] Can we figure it out?"
SOULs Crossing.
(Look forward to it, alright? So You Can Figure IT Out.)
