Chapter Four: Interlude
Tales from Edo:
The Time Traveller
There once was a girl who defied time.
She always understood that she did not belong to one single place, she went where she was needed.
But by doing so, she lost who she was. She gave every last drop of herself to others.
By losing her present, she created her own future, unknown to all but her.
She lived a lonely existence between everything and everyone, before disappearing.
The Half Demon
There once was a demon, a half demon actually.
Half demon, half human, stuck in a dichotomy between two worlds that refused to accept him.
So he died alone, outliving his human companion, he chose to take his own life.
The Prince of the Moon
There once was a Lord with no land, so he wandered. Through forests filled with demons and valleys riddled with human villages.
There once was a Lord with no purpose. He was no longer searching for a fang that was never his, no longer hunting a demon he could not kill, no longer pining for someone who would never love him.
So he wandered without purpose.
A demon without purpose means nothing but a path of destruction.
