" my own illusion come to be "

a quiet sigh, leaning into his presence subconsciously, seeking a comfort that they had long lost. "my grief only rots into rage, harder than jade and sharper than my jian. alas. my concerns find empty bodies and listening hearts here.", a heavy tired breath escaped the fox, still managing to hold themselves with he natural sort of authority that they always had somewhere in their body.
"I come out here to visit the bodies of some of the ghosts that haunt me. I have buried friends and family in these fields since I came here. It's been an intense journey, but I've made it. ... May I?", they ask, wanting to move closer without it being awkward, needing someone else's shoulder to rely on for a few seconds, someone else's presence to ground themselves in.
breathing out, they yawned, "if not the body, a reminder. my mother will soon be buried, mother ages. if I could find my siblings to bring before mother ... ah well. our family is a messy complicated one as most are. the fact is that this is a burial ground and the dead cannot tell the secrets of the living.", a patient hum before their brow furrowed, "and concerns. perhaps i could gain guidance from the remaining energies of jiyu and sephiroth, my first friends here. both pharoahs before me.", they rumble in thought, "mainly about that tiger. sephiroth would have handed him his ass and sent him on his way but it is lonely here. I am too brash sometimes, that is why fika is my vizier, changing those difficult choices into multiple roads. how about you, aside from the jungle? no young lady or young man catching your eye and driving you to write poems?"
