Blood-soaked glass sears three lifetimes;175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgioInnHH42
Moonstone seals a soul in a hundred years of frost.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3yrbYn1a9
“Hah… hah…”
“Get away! All of you, get away!”
Staggering through the crowd, she sees the figure lying in a pool of blood.
“No…”
“What… have you done to her!”
Hands trembling, trying to piece together what was broken—175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HdMYsJ0ap
fingers meet the glass phial within the soft fur—still intact.
This morning, its thin walls still held prismatic light.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BDT30RFC3
Now they run with blood, staining the world red.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwCQKk13HG
“Demoness!”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvGZXurDZy
Faces like black voids close in around her.
“Now that the Sinful Rabbit isn’t here to protect you, let’s see where you can run today!”
“Solas! Do it—!”
Blade drawing near, she lowers her eyes.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3OnYUKuQm
If there be another life, may we both be without heart…
Would it not have come to such an end…
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sUzmnRYKL
Whooo—
Wind rises in a sudden gust.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzARAB56I8V
Red plum blossoms bloom at once—across tree trunks, grass, stone pedestals.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRIQZXD2ez
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAMFpbvyvE
“None but demons are without heart.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyRUEGFuOy
To summon her back—175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTkfwuj6fv
bind to stone,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdzQMa4wbm
soul to weather a hundred years.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxhUdWksfv
Are you still steadfast?”
“I do not regret.”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8YoGUKNSi
Wait for wind to rise,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nyn9s0cRe
wait for light to fall,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSPCAZuHu4
wait for you to wake again.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhchWBvU7Qa
That night, the moon was full, sharp as a blade.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6CzWm8tda
No one remembered its former form.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFguzytykId
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPctzUs7gU
Distant mountains, silent.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlqTkxqwjI
Wind over treetops.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnCweC6HUT
…
Before the eyes, all is white.
Sitting up, trees stand frozen, only branch-tips breaking through.
Yet beneath the body—175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi51UR6anK
snow without trace.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kb3TYaYBv
Am I… dead?
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv45z1VEk1N
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDtEaLHWdU
Head lifted toward the moon, warmth seeps from behind.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9DLfNz40v
After countless attempts, the only thing within reach, yet impossible to leave.
Once stepping too far, something seems to tug,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisff1HiFGS
making even a single step impossible.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqjhL5WshX
…Very well.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILdqNm3hMn
Moon bright.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Jg4waI3j1
Stone warm.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTYwBl4e43
This night, no regret.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKEb4mLX0z
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7I0xeDBUM
“Why…”
“Because you should die.”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L12LvkhrJ
…Who is speaking?
The thought has just formed.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSQl0tiv7Y
A strange vision surfaces.
Applause and tea-smoke intertwine.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1xDrWy7LS
Storyteller speaking with measured ease inside the inn.
Unnoticed, it has already reached its end.
With a sweep of the sleeve and a smile:175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNdwSGj3PH
“If you wish to know what follows in Guiltbound, listen to the next telling.”
Awareness returns. Eyes open.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeFiOeK5VX
Half-embedded in stone.
Only after a brief panic does understanding come.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5N0TI7RGhH
It is by borrowing stone as vessel that another’s form and thoughts are glimpsed.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zhmu2bEME
Heh.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnniS1qqtB
A little deeper, then.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEbJ3PtsK3
See what plays out in the world.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM4U9L626V
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk54ifZv4MC
Why can only you be touched?175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaTrPzMLuU
And why do you give off warmth?
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bNCtCJ9Ad
How many days since waking, unknown.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPxnqwB1Tj
Little Ghost still gazes at the stone, murmuring those unanswered questions.
Thoughts not yet settled, the sea of consciousness jolts, as if falling into a bottomless void.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbKb7a2T3v
“It has been a long time.”
“Do you think me blind of eye and heart?”
“When blossoms bloomed that year, I smiled—more foolish than anyone.”
“…”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVzOPgxbKl
“Ngh…”
What… is this…
It hurts—stop!
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2lY5kh0sU
—The chaotic tide subsides; only then, insect-song.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ1ohsKuwq
“Hah…”
…The rest, another time.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceIvpHOumh
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPJmZi0DFF
Sun not yet set, yet the moon already appears.
Tonight… probably full.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqB03sRKjs
Had meant to look more closely, only to find the stone growing hotter.
…It’s not going to explode… is it?
In that panic, the stone suddenly shines—blinding.
Not good!
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XC09MVElU
Breaking into a run, stopping only after distance is put between.
“Hah…”
“That was close… huh? I can speak?”
Looking down, ten fingers distinct, no longer pudgy.
Looks like human form has returned; solid things can be touched again.
“Great! Finally I can go eat all that good food!”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPGk39wQCK
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul3U92lHf6
…
Figure gradually solidifies, yet shock has not yet settled.
Once vigilance loosens, time slips away.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqql8poe3lB
When awareness returns, the self has already begun to fade.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMEJ5YQ8Nd
It was… only three days…
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInsoOuMKDP
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmQo3DaPqZ
Spring blossoms, summer cicadas, autumn leaves, winter snow.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7cABW2NCo
Year after year.
Dynasties rise and fall, yet this place never moves with them—175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW33oh1fsO
like the memory of the first day of each month.
She always forgets that day.
Rust-like stains sometimes surface upon the stone.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuu3PlhlsL
They are never examined closely.
Brief freedom beneath the full moon no longer feels precious—
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGnZmz9qYv
The fuller the moon,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmyE8A38b7
the deeper the solitude.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1FaAcNvID
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHj024txFP
“Shrew!”
The sudden roar shatters the rare stillness.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhVtg5H4VA
Hm?
I didn’t use possession.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLBgJiinFi
Brows drawn tight, the man stands in the courtyard corridor.
He smashes the glass pendant at his waist.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UUjymSugz
Shards scatter, stained by the setting sun.
Heart pounds heavy, yet the body grows cold—whose reaction is this?
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3qhVsASpe
No… I don’t want to see anymore…
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzJSQ01gnj
Splintered fire slips through the seams of grey brick.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoqDuVIhax
Beads of blood at the fingertips devour the fading sky.
She hears the accusation pierce her mind:
“—What have you done!”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBG5il3uUx
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTzgGhxw2o
Silent brilliance flares.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6sbJlyIkk
Mountain shadows bow as one.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcI42vmxDh
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkj9S3ZqUMn
“Affection breeds wounds; remembrance forges hatred.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGb4kiHhjp
You once said you wanted no part of it—what of now?”
“Are you still steadfast?”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OyvCC84Zi
Fingers brush lightly over the stone, gaze lifting toward the night sky.
At the corner of the lips, slowly forms the curve the other loved most.
Then, stepping into the moonlight.
Form fades like firefly light.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdGcEplOEU
“—I do not regret.”
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19S4bo8XMK
Evening wind passes through the mountain forest.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJJBEh49gu
Only a faint glimmer remains upon the stone.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO2ao55JW4
Legend says this mountain has shown light three times:175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2DHnR7vmr
first as blood,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD2DsCvxJM
second as dream,175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwrhnB1NQM
third as the night’s lingering thought.
Thus it was named—175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3BWoAjevq
the Land Without Heart.
