“What’s a soul?”[lb2][/lb2] That was a question that has been plaguing philosophers and theologists for years and will continue to do so for many years to come.[lb2][/lb2] “Can you touch it?”[lb2][/lb2] In Buddhism, there is various ideas about what there is after death, often boiling down to the idea that nothing is permanent – even the being. In Hinduism, it is the true self, the essence of an individual. In Taoism, they believe that a person has two souls: hun and po. Whatever the case may be, it was quite the valid question in a place of academia.[lb2][/lb2] “Can you eat it?”[lb2][/lb2] But, when directed at young, impressionable ten year olds being trained to be child soldiers. And doing so in a manner almost threatening. One must rethink how they pose such a question lest they get in trouble with the law.[lb2][/lb2] “Can you kill it?”[lb2][/lb2] Alas, Akako has yet to learn the art of tact. They’ve yet to learn so many things, in fact. Which is why it is rather fitting they’ve lost and found themselves in a place of learning.[lb2][/lb2] “Are you a soul?” they ask this with a straight face as they stare unblinkingly, head on. At a young boy who looks like they’re about to burst into tears. The poor lad was unlucky enough to be heading home from school when the kunoichi stumbled upon him. Though they, themselves, could pass off as a young teen, the unsettling aura they held about them is unmistakable. How one like this would even be allowed through the village gates, nobody knows. But, obviously, they weren’t a Suna Nin with the lack of headband or symbol on their person.[lb2][/lb2] Assimilation. There was no need to regenerate or preserve for the moment. So, they wanted to learn.[lb2][/lb2] “Well? I need answers.”[lb2][/lb2] | Main Status: Assimilating[lb][/lb] Preservation Mode: Active[lb][/lb] Assimilation Mode: Active[lb][/lb] Incognito Mode: Error[lb][/lb] Battle Mode: Inactive[lb][/lb] R͞͏̴̶̮̤̼̱͓̙̭̲͔̦̣͖̪̀e̡̫̻̩̦͍̖͢à̢̛͕̼͔̗͉̖͔̠̝̠̺͈̣̲̰̩͎̱̩͝p͓̪͉̝͚̣̰̮̼̼͓̰̀̀͘͞͝é̢̢͚̭̣̮̞̜̲̕r̴̛̦̳̺̯̣̹͚̣̗̰̙͇͈̖̤̗͝ͅͅͅ Mode: ?¿?¿?[lb][/lb]
