He sighed shaking his head to what she had said, it wasn't something that he could do "Leaving people behind hurts I could never do it, it's why I've never really bonded to anyone." he said with a sigh as he continued to walk "Don't get me wrong I have had plenty of offers to pair but it's taboo." he explained he was still an stickler to the old rules he had been raised from

"I had no home or place to be once I came here so I found a family one blood line, I welcomed and watched them for as long as I could remember once the new world started I was rarely seen by them I finally vanished till this day they think I was ghost who lived with them cause they never found a death record of me or even a birth but I who show once in a while at times some where happy others scared but I haven't seen them since the turn but I know I am tale with in that family now." she said as he looked at him understood what he meant. She was never paired with any one but the one who killed her whole family.

"I didn't want to call this place my home, I still don't... I'm going home now with the one I hope to spend the rest of time with." he squeezed her hand lightly and reassuring him and hopefully her. "I haven't been out of the void much but then it was always studies followed by work, I often wondered if my family missed me when I was taken from them.

"They did, I would hear them when I was younger that they miss the child they got to have and raise. My mother and father tried to reassure them that you would be back soon and they will send messengers to you all the time. They where happy when they knew we could do it. And you are going back home now, we both are."

He listened to her smiling "not once did I forget them..." he frowned however hearing about messengers "I never got any messages from home" he looked back at the temple wondering why they never told him, then if he had got a message he would have went home where he belonged "yes we are, It will be nice to return"

"Yes everyday, they sent a letter every day they waited to see if they could get one back from you. They finally did, but it wasn't from you it was from them saying to please stop sending letters. It was a bother to you and it was meaningless for you have them. . . ." she said looking at the ground. "Your mother was heart broken thought you hated them and wanted to know why you wouldn't want letters any more. . . ."

He looked at her hearing her words, a look of shock and hurt he couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe that they would do that to him. "I wrote to them every day wishing for a letter back, but they said they recieved a letter saying since I was dead to them because I left..." he looked to the ground "I truly thought they hated me... That is why I stopped trying to run back home" he explained it seemed like he would have to check up the records when he finally returned now he knew the truth. "When we get home I hope I can find my mother and father's spirit and explain bringing them peace." he said with a faint smile.

"We will, I know many of them more less all of them will not really move on. No one is ready. . . ." she said looking over to him. "If they where all ready to move on the woods would be more lively as you know." as walked on with him then leaned her head back to look up into the sky.

"Perhaps they are bound there, some unfinished business?" he said walking his eyes closing "Such as the need for revenge on the one that killed them." he explained he really hoped that wasn't the case or they would attack at anyone not dead. "I can't wait to see my mother and father again, I could get us there now if you wanted." he explained with a laugh remembering his abilities to move shadows,

"It's not always unfinished work, its just they feel like they shouldn't be leaving at all. Most of them when I stayed there longer after what had happened, said they where staying cause they wanted to watch over who was still left I didn't get what anyone had meant then but I know now. So they where watching over us both it seems." she said with a bit of a smile then looked over to him. "You can do that if you want to." she said with a little bit of a laugh.

"Unfinished work is normally what stops a soul from going to be judged, however it could be they don't realize they are in fact dead." he knew he had been spending time around to many shaman when he started talking like that. He was glad however hearing another explanation hoping that it was true, holding her hand he moved into the shadow of a nearby home only to bring them out from a shadow in their village "We're home now Doll." he let go of her hand knowing such actions where only done by those who were courting which they weren't.

Walking out of the shadows she felt his hand leave her as she looked around seeing how it seems it never really changed as if the world stood still the old homes stood still with a soft creaking sound but once they where there long enough it seemed to be alive again of all the spirits of all who had passed on going about as if nothing had happened, this is what Doll had seen when she was still there when she was younger and now it was the same. One of the older spirits looked over and smiled. "Well, well look who came back after looking at the world move by." he said as he moved over to Doll. "Long time no see Doll chan." as he moved is gaze to the other. "It has been many moons since you came back your self." said the elderly old man.

Looking around the village he could hardly believe how little had changed since he was last here "Seems untouched by time." he whispered to her his senses stimulated and what he heard and smelt, though even now he did smell the death that happened so long ago. "Yes elder it has been, I am sorry I didn't visit." he said looking to the ground

"Now, now no need to look like that. Come along you two though time has passed and we all have passed on we are here living like the spirits we are. Some have already moved on knowing it was time but most of us feel we should stay longer take care of what needs to be done." he said going a head of the both. Doll followed then looked around. "I will be back I should go and see my mother and father." as she parted ways went into her home as she was greeted by her family she smiled. The elder looked and smiled and then looked at the other. "Do you not see to see your family also?" he asked him.

Not looking up as the elder spoke he sighed it already felt so much of a distant memory his eyes looking around in the hopes of finding something he recognised as he followed quietly, hearing the question he nodded looking around a little more till he found something he recognised and walked towards it knowing his parents home was just beside it.

stopping at the door he placed his hand softly on it his head lowering as he was having second thoughts but knocked on the door anyway, the worst that could happen was they told him to go away.

Looking to the door it opened at first it seemed empty but then soon came to life his mother off to the side cleaning his father in the room building something like always. The table was set as if they where going to have lunch but it was set for three people it seems.
