Summary: Memories haunt him.
Wandering from town to town, the young man survived by killing demons
that plagued villages. The village heads were always eager to pay him
or even offer food for his journeys.
Each day was the same. Traveling until he was able to find a safe
place to stay the night and perhaps finding a demon that needed to be
exterminated. It was almost as if he went through the actions in a
daze.
Sometimes, during a fight, flashes would come to him. He saw a girl,
hair pulled into a high ponytail. Ane-ue? There was also a man,
strong but gentle. Chichi-ue? Memories haunted him, yet he could not
place them. There were times when even his name escaped him.
His hand clutched the pouch filled with coins. Money could do many
things, but it would never return his memories.
