“Two women who should be dead. Two women who looked upon the realm of the dead and were granted another chance at life.” Ayame said “And so in a way their fates were forever intertwined. In a way I should feel a kinship with you, Calypso. But there is a difference between us that has made the difference between us larger than any realms could hold.”
“It’s purpose. I was given another chance, a soul intertwined with another to make the world a better place. A small instance to right the wrongs that had been caused by the hubris of humans. To lead people down the right path of the natural order of things and have nature reclaim what people now call the concrete jungles.”
“But as I look at you, I don’t see a person with purpose. Well not in the traditional sense. I see someone who has been corrupted. Consumed with the desire for revenge. A heart filled with hatred. Some would even call that a vengeful spirit.”
“And that’s just the thing with vengeful spirits, they are so blinded. So focused on the hatred that flows through them. That they miss the greater picture. They don’t care what is destroyed. They don’t care what lasting ramifications their actions will hold as long as they obtain their revenge and are able to lay down to rest peacefully. A vengeful spirit is inherently a selfish spirit. For when I will have to be placed back into the land of the dead. I do not wish to leave this world in a more disrepaired state that I entered it with. I want to leave it with a message of hope, in a better state than when I entered it with. And should I have to be called upon again I shall return.”
She went quiet as she drew a deep breath.
“Can you honestly say the same Calypso? Can you say that you march with purpose? Or are you just another cog in the never ending cycle of hatred and vengeance that you so easily could break from, to break you from your tunnel vision and see that there is a better world out there for you.”
“However, that is a long journey for you to begin on. A journey through a deep dark forest. That would lead you through some very uncomfortable questions. Admittedly it is so much easier to lie in the bed of vengeance.”
“Temptations like that will ultimately be your undoing. As once you realize that you have nothing left to be here for you will have no purpose. You will be a wrathful ghost swinging at the breeze with no response. It’s a hollow existence to only live on vengeance, so I implore you to right your journey before it’s too late”
