Distant stars glittered above the lonely desert. The night wind snarled hoarsely, as the years trudged on.

His body could no longer feel fatigue or pain. The most primal drive of life kept him moving forward. He had no idea where he was going, only a premonition that if he stopped, he would fall and never get up again.

Acting on instinct, his tongue unconsciously swept over lips scored by the wind into deep crevices. A sharp sting jolted his already weakened nerves awake.

"Ah... is it that late already?" Kamui looked up at the ink-black sky. The stars seemed tiny, yet shone so brightly. His half-closed eyes gradually blurred and lost focus, while the wind in his ears faded into silence. The last thought holding him upright slipped away, and he suddenly felt much lighter.

"Let me fall... Let me sink into endless darkness..."

Kamui murmured, then fell in the desert.

The blowing sand buried his body, while the starry sky drew his soul onward.

It's a Word. A world you don't know.
