A man in rags stood in front of the gate. The gate to where it all began and798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF3DMnpdcz
where it would all end. A thousand steps it took him but he was reluctant to798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lembsl1Da

reveal an aged face. With many wrinkles and more scars. He took a deep breath.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8KbXmE9yo
Breathing in the fresh mountain air and the bloomed sakura trees. This beauty,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGA0vVvLbU

part of his life has that been ever since he joined the Golden Columns. 798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy23lpmGMY
How it moulded him, made him the man he was today. Should he be proud, or798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfdeXmVzjb

take a few moments to appreciate it. But he knew he could not wait any798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEuAEfO4G1
longer. He had to keep going.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHJai5vcru

First798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnggTDZ8Ep9
step, ten steps...twenty...Serene Dancer counted each and every last step.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtSQ5Ts6X9
Taking in every last blade of grass and pebble, until he reached the main798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMOq0VOTO2
temple with their grand doors open.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyxiYKhBFm
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHMV5TloCW
The first798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6yEOlDDls
step tentative, each one helped Serene Dancer gather more courage, until he798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPtWWZKQWc
entered the temple itself. Inside the temple was darkness, with a path of798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ86WjqfYAX
light leading further in. 798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrGCqZ1Hgg

Serene Dancer was surprised, he was expecting splendour. Beauty to match the798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXzlEQJleH
outside, but the darkness felt as if it would swallow you whole. It felt as if798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36buY8Cgzd
Serene Dancer would lose his mind inside this darkness and would be forever798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzE31220fb7
trapped.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUz46V0YCdj

"Calm798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCvfJK5jRE
mind, calm spirit. The great one shall guide you." His mantra. He kept798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEjRQWnXL1
repeating those words until he had renewed courage to challenge the darkness.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEAeuOBaqd
The courage did not come But he knew he could not turn back, thus muttering the798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uTbq5XS5S
words under his breath he followed the path of light.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l4DLxKS4G
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs7Y9nR0ZF
He walked798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWaIGLIAxt
and walked, ten minutes, twenty an hour. "Calm mind, calm spirit..."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1wV7bAlkL
The only words echoing in the darkness. As it kept encroaching the path of798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhIY09PV4t
light, dwindling it down. 798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LtJqrh5ob
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIbxIvRBoj
"Enough."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT98OGGAquA
A voice joined Serene Dancer's prayers as the darkness retreated from the path798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7pfe3BYVO
and revealed a figure sitting upon a throne, shining so brightly that it overtook798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaqShX38vD
the darkness and there was only light.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3dDdnsg5H
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbglE4ge5fi
"You798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vQUsWnb0g

798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO6psNaR16
Serene798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19uovHHrps
Dancer wept, for he was so overwhelmed by the sheer presence.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7O4ECHtRW
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6uUL8U8FR
"Come,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q4nTO2HVi
let us talk." Serene Dancer felt his legs move on their own as he walked798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzchtvnTiho
closer to God. Upon reaching the light he bent his knees, laying his, bald,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ537KWiaZm
head down until his forehead touched the path of light.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtirdhzwvbo
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPTadAYjgx
"You,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnh2RPzt6a

798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcfOqpfhQJ
"I798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH939VqBp7t
do so swear." Serene Dancer's voice sounded so tiny, so miniscule in his798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aVO9DGPK5
ears. Especially compared to the voice of god.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp3CeHF2Ey
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyPO1B8nUJ
"Very,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIqnknrrks
well. Raise your head." As he did so, God's shape began to change,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PHssKH6kH
morphing into something else, something smaller. Until the light stopped fluctuating798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9h9X5b7Ru
and a small boy appeared out of the light.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefpwrhnsK6
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGEuoyy3GF
"This798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjFRO3szWD
is the past you." Voice still unchanged. "Tell me why did you decide798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPSvXsKIPL
to join your order at such a young age?"798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayGf55vsbZ
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawHN4638N7
Serene798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6tCeSefQb
Dancer sat in silence for a while, gathering his thoughts. "I wanted more798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i0nZnQQXx
out of my life. My parents were honest people, but poor. They were not able to798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6lFjz9nGV
provide for me and my siblings..."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXtX5cqn5Z
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMOipBjW3i
"Is798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MsCD6dGkV
that why you abandoned them without saying a word?" Gods words cut through798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA8cTEmlbh
Serene Dancer's as if knife cutting butter. "Do you know that they have798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o2HYBarPX
spent years searching for you? That they blamed themselves for your disappearance?798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9hMdVXso5
They died, 10 years after you joined the order. Thinking they have failed you,798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiSmp079lb
leaving your siblings on their own. They are all dead now aswell."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5pQTecF2E
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2KUZH9G8m
Serene798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9w2SC3JuM
Dancer sat in contemplation. It was his family, but it has been so long ago798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1Qby3Voac
since he stopped being Bongzhon that it mattered little to him. The loss of798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyjeF3Rp37
life was horrible, but it was all in the past.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WlJUKZIjE
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn5NxPVpUK
"Do798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdb6yc6YpL
you still believe you have made the correct choice? Of abandoning your family798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3op12CiYSg
leading them to ruin?"798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQqI2BQ41i
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5vnAxprXr
"Yes."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd2ttM3PS1
Was the only word Serene Dancer said, for that life would lead to ruin whether798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMPYZzLXzk
he would've stayed or not.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfdde4VX2Q
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPkmFKYViU
"Very798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2tgvlocuh
well." The light changed form again. This time to a grown man. With well798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsN9maGEc3p
developed muscles and a shaved head. "This is you when you have taken the798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3SHDPt6WC
mantle of master. Tell me, do you believe you were worthy?"798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GNrQZhUJm
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKB4MRfhry
"I798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQodUUQosH4
do." For believing otherwise would be dishonouring the choice made by798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSZcU4Qh0Y
everyone who chose him. The mantle of master is passed on through vote. With798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfN3sEHTry
everyone in the order eligible to vote, from the youngest acolyte to the798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxrFNQ1I0G
hardened elder. Serene Dancer would respect their choice.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JjFkvsxen
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILpLffdnP5
"And798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6JFXwnwPm
what of your choices? Would you do anything else or do you believe you were798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNNrTZTqKR
perfect in your role?"798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYzs3hRgCH
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipaV8DFQJ6
"I798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYR26WEGl2b
was not the perfect master, but I would not change any of the choices I798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9pvuj6qEv
made." Before, the answer would've been yes. But not anymore. Did all his798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw4QznUG6P
choices lead to a good conclusion? No. But they were his choices and he would798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNLdff0zx3
stand by them.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2haRMWJG2C
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x2gNqhXiH
"Good."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCY8DQvnZI
A shift again, and this time Serene Dancer saw an older man. A man with a bent798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSi4aMTcg1
down posture and beard that only ended at the waist. A man who had both798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroNgo368Dm
wrinkles and scars on his face. A man that was him.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFv5bUBBoQ
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsSuZvBfNW

why did you decide to rest now?"798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y7KJYj6Ys
798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZ3pc4gFrW
"Because798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SFDKFrpBO
I am tired." Tired of seeing his friends die, tired of seeing people in a798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb4StmO4lk
cycle of poverty and violence, tired of seeing the young ones deny tradition798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dvVIFRzjL
and stray further away from the righteous path. His time has come to an end.798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgG12y9zGT

798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66hgkLdZ9l
"No."798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5ctveJPxC

798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW32x8X9tsb
The light798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocCAiqTAox
enveloped Serene Dancer, as he felt it's light touch and warmth. He felt798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OnEZ7gDxL
his body slowly disappearing as it joined the light and he felt, for the first798Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFdBfa0TPi
