FLASHBACK
Chi: Fallen! Do it now!
Fallen: As a child No! Please!
Fallen looking down at an adult ninja, cowering in fear from the child that just brought him into submission...
Chi: KILL HIM! He is an enemy! He would've killed you if he had the chance!
Fallen: There has to be another way!
The adult ninja panicked, reached for his katana, and leaped at Fallen... Fallen panicked until a flash flew before him... He opened his eyes to find that the ninja was put down with one key slash
Ryo: Don't worry Fallen... The Gods understand when you have no choice but to draw your sword... Don't feel bad for the ninja... He knew the risk he took... I feel shame in myself for taking life, because I am reminded every day how much I owe the Gods for my crimes...
Chi is shocked at the words of Ryo, as they sound cowardly to him
Chi: That's not how it should be! Death is necessary... War is necessary... You must always make others know that your strength is over theirs... It must always be known who is supreme...
Ryo gets up from kneeling down to Fallen... and looks deep into his father's eyes... Even at the age 12, he still stands with strength behind his eyes, fueling his blood.
Ryo: Father... Peace should be your goal... Not war. War is painful for all those that endure it... It is more painful for the righteous that are driven to kill...
Chi: Are you being insubordinate?!
End of Flashback
Fallen is sitting next to a tree with a fire going...
Fallen-To himself- Ryo... Why?
He pulls a scroll from his satchel and starts reading it...
PS: Don't continue the flashback, please... It's something only Fallen knows and plays a key factor WAY later
