((*Ish dizzy* I think Im going to have to pause this story for a few days. Ive noticed that my ideas are getting weaker and weaker, and I really need a few days off before continuing. This will probably be the last one up for awhile...))

As I write this, my plane is climbing steadily higher on its way to Japan. I have had only three months of lessons on the language, but my late father has aquantances there that I can go to for translation if necesary.
Japan, the tenth country on my journy, my only hope is that it is the last.
Not that my travels have been fruitles, I have found many a spell that has seemed to function, and many ways to send a message across to the deceised, but no effective way of truely receiving a message...
A message, one word from my beloved, what I wouldnt do...
How I keep going is beyond me, as most every moment without her is tourture, the sinister reverse of our life together.
Then I remember her smile, her face, her laugh. She was the one who taught me to love my life, and I have vowed to honour that lesson, even if she is...
I will find a way to bring her back, whatever the cost.
