Dear Master,
Are my brothers doing well? I hope they are.
The fighting here only becomes more savage. As the elder brother, my single
recourse is to become stronger myself.
The only thing spurring me on in that training, however, is the wreckage of
so many missing feelings. When looking at a record of what was lost, you
may know what is missing, but you cannot truly feel what is was; these are
the circumstances I now face.
If I can replace these missing feelings, maybe my power can truly become
whole...
Dear Master,
I am writing from Osaka.
I need only look up to see that same castle, and yet, even though I am here,
nothing feels real to me.
I remembers, for sure, but they feel like I'm simply reading a record written
by some other hand, rather than like they belong to me.
...I suppose a weapon like me having become a person, and now standing
here in a place from my past, is like a dream in and of itself.
Dear Master,
The great Toyotomi Hideyoshi was a man who loved famous swords and
would eagerly collect them.
I am quite sure reason for this, is that through the symbol swords represent,
he felt like he was fighting alongside the warriors of Japan.
And this is the man who selected me as his sword to carry. I'm sure I was very
proud of this honor.
But that is also surely why, after I burned with Osaka Castle at the end of
the era of Toyotomi and was reforged into a new weapon, I can no longer
share that same feeling.
My memories of the past still feel like they happened to someone else. The
only reason I feel anything at all is because I'm once again in the service of
a master who collects famous swords.
I hope that, under this new master, I will eventually be able to overcome my
feeling of loss.
...I will come back soon.. I'm sure my brothers will be slacking off
by now.
