Mom used to tell me stories of a time when the grass was green and the sky was blue. Where the sun was bright and the moon and stars lit up the night. When the world was alive and water flowed. But I did not believe her not when this world all around me is barren and lifeless and stricken by war all the time. The seasons no longer change. She said they did. But I did not believe that either besides there is no sun or moon it is just lifeless. She also told me that my real mother left me at her doorstep in a basket with a note that said my name was 'Kiyoshi and that I would know what to do when the time comes' although I did know it yet I was in for one hell of an adventure. The mother that raised me said my mom could save this world and bring it back to its original state. But I would not know I never I got to meet her. They say she was a human goddess and that she came to our land on the back of a dragon the color of sapphires and she could sprout wings and fly. That she brought the world to life with just one touch. I wish to find her, my real mother. And maybe along the way I will find someone I lost, I will find you, brother.
