 Then one day I came across an elderly gentleman who told me that it was very possible my inability to regain my memories was due to an abnormal Chi flow.  He told me of the proccess of Ba Gua and of Feng-Shui that could help re-align my flow of Chi.  Hearing this, I immediately set out to find one who could perform a Ba Gua ceremony for me.  I traveled through the wilderness to the home of the Geomancers.  There I met Kikoura who agreed to perform the Ba Gua ceremony for me in hopes that it may help me regain my memory. As she began focusing, I could feel my chi flow shift ever so slightly. Perhaps this would work!  Perhaps this could be what I have needed in order to regain my memory!  However, I soon began to feel darkness creep all around me, like it was enveloping me.  What could this darkness be?  For some strange reason I did not fear this darkness, I felt strangely... comfortable with it.  Almost like it was a very familiar friend of mine.  

 Not long after I noticed this darkness, Kikoura notified me that the reading was complete and she felt from my chi flow that I had been a good friend in the past.  A good friend?  Surely someone would have recognized me by now had I been such a good friend.  This reading from her left me puzzled and also disappointed.  I know I felt the flow of my chi shift, yet I still had not regained any of my memories.  The only thing I felt was the strange darkness enveloping me.  I thanked Kikoura for her service and journeyed back towards the Silla hall while thinking on what I had felt during that experience.  Upon arrival back at the hall I went back to my tent to rest from the journey I had embarked on and soon fell asleep.

 This is when I truly felt the effects of the Ba Gua.  My sleep was plagued with darkness, nightmares, and strange voices.  Voices that seemed strangely familiar to me.  On was the voice of a woman screaming out to me for help, calling me by name.  The woman's voice created a stir inside me and a surge of feelings within me the likes of which I have never felt before.  The sound of her voice struck a chord of familiarity within me, but I still could not find the memory of who she was.  Another voice was that of a man who was constantly laughing and seemed to be chasing after the woman.  His voice seemed strangely familiar to me too, but his voice stirred a deep hatred within me.  Whereas the woman's voice aroused a feeling of fondness, the man's voice caused anger and hatred to boil up from within me. Their voices began to grow louder and lounder until I thought I would go mad.  Then... silence.  

 A blood-curdling scream piereced through the silence as I awakened in a cold sweat.  My mind began to be flooded with images, thoughts, and voices.  Millions of images flashed through my mind all at once, all of them familiar to me.  I laid there in my tent shaking, sweating, and clenching my eyes and teeth.  Then all in an instant, my memories returned to me.  I arose with a new resolve: that spirit will pay.  I will find how to regain my powers and then I shall imprison that spirit for all eternity.  I left the halls of Silla never to return again.  I care not for "friends" or "family"; there is only one thing in the world to me.  That is gaining my powers back so I can make the accursed spirit suffer for all eternity.
