Day after, day after, day after, laugh in the haze!

Tied up, lost in a never-ending nightmare. Begging again and again. "Let me go!" Softly he's snickering, the smiling snake. "How stupid can they be?" He's laughing at their terror, fear, their continuous, repeating, terrible dream. But he doesn't ignore them, oh no. He listens to their pleas. And this one time, he'll listen closely.

A single laugh in the haze. A laugh other than his own.

A deal struck. A deal, so it seems, with the devil.

"Set me free. Give me a snake."

"Where's the catch?"

"And I'll do whatever you want. Ever."

"And if you fail to follow all my orders?"

"Kill me."

And so, the Snake of Clearing Eyes was released into the world. And the person who made the deal entered the world once again, after.

"Snake of Perceiving Eyes. When the time is right, be the surrogate body of this human. I shall be waiting."

The end is fading away...
