Hantei Dave: you are bleeding badly
Hida Oku: I bind them
Hantei Dave: you won't be able to travel much further
Hida Oku: I can't give up!
Hantei Dave: you may die here
Hida Oku: yep. But there's no way that I'm going down now
Hida Oku: I've already come too far, and besides... I bear the tanto for
my clan!
Hantei Dave: your mind wanders more and more
Hantei Dave: you take another nick when you say that
Hida Oku: Ok, I'm just going to sit a bit, and relax.
Hida Oku: and think
Hida Oku: meditate, like I see Udon do
Hida Oku: or at least, try to
Hantei Dave: it makes you feel a bit better
Hida Oku: anyway, I will think about achieving my goal, I guess
Hantei Dave: "What goal?" a voice whispers
Hida Oku: To overcome this mountain
Hantei Dave: It whispers it over and over
Hida Oku: To live for the good of my clan, and the empire
Hida Oku: and to die for them, too
Hantei Dave: it whispers faster
Hida Oku: I know I live a dishonorable life, but I will do the best I can
with it
Hida Oku: I know, in my heart, that I am doing what is best for my
clan, the empire, my friends, and myself
Hantei Dave: it feels a bit better
Hida Oku: I would die for those things
Hida Oku: Ah, I see
Hida Oku: This is MY mountain
Hantei Dave: it nicks you
Hida Oku: oh!
Hida Oku: oops
Hida Oku: your mountain.... definatley your mountain
Hida Oku: anyway, back to meditating
Hida Oku: to my goals
Hantei Dave: can't concentrate anymore
Hida Oku: try to sleep.... relax, I guess
Hantei Dave: hard to
Hida Oku: I try to paint for a bit
Hida Oku: if I can
Hida Oku: NOT with the jade brush
Hantei Dave: its ruining your other brush
Hida Oku: what is? the dust?
Hantei Dave: the rock
Hantei Dave: it doesn't hold the paper
Hantei Dave: your blood drips
Hantei Dave: onto it
Hida Oku: I'll paint with my finger
Hida Oku: on the rock
Hida Oku: in my blood
Hida Oku: (cool!)
Hantei Dave: its cutting you worse
Hida Oku: ow
Hida Oku: time to stop that
Hida Oku: I guess I'll think about what I'm doing here, then
Hida Oku: I mean, what I'm really doing here
Hantei Dave: "what are you doing here?" says the wind
Hida Oku: I'm trying to save the empire from evil, actually
Hida Oku: and my clan, and friends
Hantei Dave: wait
Hantei Dave: it felt better at the end
Hida Oku: at the end?
Hantei Dave: of your sentence
Hida Oku: when I thought about the group?
Hantei Dave: delirium comes soon
Hida Oku: I'd really like to see them again, actually
Hantei Dave: you feel a bit better
Hantei Dave: you hear keshijo moaning
Hida Oku: can I speak to him?
Hantei Dave: yes
Hantei Dave: your conversation is not helping
Hida Oku: oh
Hida Oku: let's shut up, then
Hantei Dave: think...you almost got it
Hida Oku: Where's kuno?
Hantei Dave: feeling better again
Hida Oku: I put my thoughts on him
