A man in rags stood in front of the gate. The gate to where it all began and878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13NOWHU57C
where it would all end. A thousand steps it took him but he was reluctant to878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBZ3Av9Wor
take the last step. After all who'd be willing to walk to their deaths.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxnZ2npdPA

Breathing in the fresh mountain air and the bloomed sakura trees. This beauty,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7fTwdL4Wi

part of his life has that been ever since he joined the Golden Columns. 878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQmuK74vUV
How it moulded him, made him the man he was today. Should he be proud, or878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez9T5vEhPd
should he be ashamed? He could not truly answer that.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SkNgF5Vzq

up to the Kami Temple. It was truly majestic, Serene Dancer could not help but878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SSLSjvg3V
take a few moments to appreciate it. But he knew he could not wait any878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgOANAa5w1
longer. He had to keep going.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IN3CESO9D
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYHxpJ8xjg
First878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcqrqn8HbF
step, ten steps...twenty...Serene Dancer counted each and every last step.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyio52OQ6qx
Taking in every last blade of grass and pebble, until he reached the main878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0Vn6X94Gf
temple with their grand doors open.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rCAD4iHB6
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfHOxwVHrn
The first878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbh5y6PjJt
step tentative, each one helped Serene Dancer gather more courage, until he878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIBYTOTtg5
entered the temple itself. Inside the temple was darkness, with a path of878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvw6N5mr99
light leading further in. 878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadGHeL2fqc
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDVNyZvvzr
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5zobMcxax
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbSQxDNVDh
Serene Dancer was surprised, he was expecting splendour. Beauty to match the878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaX4MmNPo4
outside, but the darkness felt as if it would swallow you whole. It felt as if878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF02oMb0vUA
Serene Dancer would lose his mind inside this darkness and would be forever878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7rOZViBhK
trapped.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ24ssq1l5
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTE3EcpBhn

878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi3FkjtGhX
"Calm878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvqVnIRUOt
mind, calm spirit. The great one shall guide you." His mantra. He kept878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXINygaSwU
repeating those words until he had renewed courage to challenge the darkness.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnN1kYIA5f
The courage did not come But he knew he could not turn back, thus muttering the878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijKspklYGK
words under his breath he followed the path of light.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pecUQf7e0
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6IszZinzx
He walked878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhl2zyzLxV
and walked, ten minutes, twenty an hour. "Calm mind, calm spirit..."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ402ZyD7RMW
The only words echoing in the darkness. As it kept encroaching the path of878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Art2yTlXe
light, dwindling it down. 878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDmkxR3svc
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n8MtPSn7T
"Enough."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiLIj4Uxoj
A voice joined Serene Dancer's prayers as the darkness retreated from the path878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt4Mk0AigB
and revealed a figure sitting upon a throne, shining so brightly that it overtook878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeBhpgtJgl
the darkness and there was only light.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalQB37SP4u
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhCbRwc1zC
"You878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqQqAqLH0d
have come far, Bongzhon."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0Z15EWfjt
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaTadw4aiT
Serene878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFvh3vgpOq
Dancer wept, for he was so overwhelmed by the sheer presence.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjIDYfLpMG
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6hPnUBjmE
"Come,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYsYjkm10n
let us talk." Serene Dancer felt his legs move on their own as he walked878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoQk4XvbtV
closer to God. Upon reaching the light he bent his knees, laying his, bald,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XbTkl6AmK
head down until his forehead touched the path of light.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jE8uuwfxV
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc5qoZdYkj
"You,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0o5Awc4Pm9

judgement, whatever it may be"878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZimcw6Tds
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZz82ATWjH
"I878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSweJl5zqr
do so swear." Serene Dancer's voice sounded so tiny, so miniscule in his878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEEejjoETA
ears. Especially compared to the voice of god.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu11scmCGH
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCETgLv5hL
"Very,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhi5BQtNYv
well. Raise your head." As he did so, God's shape began to change,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9VzSw3adj
morphing into something else, something smaller. Until the light stopped fluctuating878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYuigG4nGS
and a small boy appeared out of the light.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRHMb2D9Y3
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI51JxXDen
"This878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmYJEzjyyN
is the past you." Voice still unchanged. "Tell me why did you decide878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj9D7mh8uH
to join your order at such a young age?"878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBJxIaw3KU
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4BJP0WZl3
Serene878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoQomF7cgl
Dancer sat in silence for a while, gathering his thoughts. "I wanted more878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLSjrNF5Ps
out of my life. My parents were honest people, but poor. They were not able to878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5AimwASL4
provide for me and my siblings..."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Qj2U2r3BO
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pfVXgaWo4
"Is878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PkZCokbNS
that why you abandoned them without saying a word?" Gods words cut through878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdoA9xkHN2
Serene Dancer's as if knife cutting butter. "Do you know that they have878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzkfM2pckV
spent years searching for you? That they blamed themselves for your disappearance?878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HCgFrsosn
They died, 10 years after you joined the order. Thinking they have failed you,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jDiEaHb7P
leaving your siblings on their own. They are all dead now aswell."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnSlkBLEq0
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78INyhidYm
Serene878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5byuNH3mnB
Dancer sat in contemplation. It was his family, but it has been so long ago878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIxuGoWsEC
since he stopped being Bongzhon that it mattered little to him. The loss of878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn859FfKOY7
life was horrible, but it was all in the past.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1naupx5GHs
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m0lyhVFUo
"Do878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoN5YYXpuE
you still believe you have made the correct choice? Of abandoning your family878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uA5EqpLdv
leading them to ruin?"878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBeALhTFDG
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MxLRBTRIN
"Yes."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYfG8yw8Sn
Was the only word Serene Dancer said, for that life would lead to ruin whether878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOJM65mUAC
he would've stayed or not.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G3Czf7Mlx
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDRHPRiQeJ
"Very878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsGOA9QEBt
well." The light changed form again. This time to a grown man. With well878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrvaaCQZnt
developed muscles and a shaved head. "This is you when you have taken the878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJlEJRm2qZ
mantle of master. Tell me, do you believe you were worthy?"878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIawYCIoiG3
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bSfld2Xbp
"I878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYnY8GxQjx
do." For believing otherwise would be dishonouring the choice made by878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX9E2B57aJ
everyone who chose him. The mantle of master is passed on through vote. With878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3joZOBFs2s
everyone in the order eligible to vote, from the youngest acolyte to the878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqFVq36JeD
hardened elder. Serene Dancer would respect their choice.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPvzwu7IAZ
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH57r1jSkWs
"And878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXI9BeyxyU
what of your choices? Would you do anything else or do you believe you were878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXkxiytVyB
perfect in your role?"878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6iBbSUvuO
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IJ8yQ4VoG
"I878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIrsbhhuSH
was not the perfect master, but I would not change any of the choices I878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDgwaA0FLh
made." Before, the answer would've been yes. But not anymore. Did all his878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJAHAFzCZG
choices lead to a good conclusion? No. But they were his choices and he would878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfB05DK5Nn
stand by them.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTlR86g4bK
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI7WPPLzok
"Good."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Yf3o1EgI
A shift again, and this time Serene Dancer saw an older man. A man with a bent878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6R3G6qpKF
down posture and beard that only ended at the waist. A man who had both878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN6VvEEtdr
wrinkles and scars on his face. A man that was him.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkhvAGdq8D
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIPfoS9kaY
"This878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yNiM1RIYd
is you now, with all of your experience and wisdom you have gained. Tell me,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGlChUT5KO
why did you decide to rest now?"878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8toR9qil5y
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB35VKAksw
"Because878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT10hQedQd
I am tired." Tired of seeing his friends die, tired of seeing people in a878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlcn8KWg0W
cycle of poverty and violence, tired of seeing the young ones deny tradition878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdHdtzLy6t
and stray further away from the righteous path. His time has come to an end.878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uhlXbtWWm
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVuW5R6ykF
"Any878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kwv0D9WR8

878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OcnoaxCGJ
"No."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj8mIVDlvl
Serene Dancer cleared his mind, it was time to let go. 878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsPux7jwyg
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpo6y7jzPY
"Bongzhon,878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QWa7pkxh1

rest."878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu2y2HBQMT
878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03cvGIsXcS
The light878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pZybzaHea
enveloped Serene Dancer, as he felt it's light touch and warmth. He felt878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPGtk5MZiw
his body slowly disappearing as it joined the light and he felt, for the first878Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQthRN5xktU
