Bab 1: Prologue
VOICE 1
Am I dead?
VOICE 2
Not quite yet but soon…
VOICE 1
Soon!? Then where is this? Why am I-
VOICE 2
Fear not, you are in a safe place now...Your kind call it the...um...ah! Bardo! Yes, Bardo! And you are at Court Room 13.
No one can and will harm you here. We only require you to speak of the truth.
Now tell me. What happened? What do you remember?
VOICE 1
What do I remember? I only remember... that horrible, unbearable, sharp ache swelling... churning … and pulsing in every part of my body! And that rusty smell and taste of...of...blood...and…a woman, no...a girl...no...which was that? Who was that?
VOICE 2
What did this girl or woman look like?
VOICE 1
I don't remember… I don't remember… She has a mark… I think…
VOICE 2
A birthmark, you mean? Or a tattoo?
VOICE 1
I only remember that it was a star…eight points…or was it five?
VOICE 2
Is she your killer?
VOICE 1
I suppose but-
VOICE 2
But?
What else do you remember?
VOICE 1
Um...
VOICE 2
Do you remember why you were killed?
VOICE 1
No…
VOICE 2
… how you were killed?
VOICE 1
I don't-
VOICE 2
… where you were-
VOICE 1
No! I SAID NO! I DON'T REMEMBER ANYTHING EXCEPT THE PAIN! I can't-
Oh...I'm sorry...I don't mean to…
VOICE 2
It's alright. Most humans have syndromes like yours when they first come in. It's pretty normal.
VOICE 1
What's happening to me?
VOICE 2
Your memories are scrambled and hence, there are discrepancies regarding your sense of self...It's quite common among your kind.
As to fixing the problem...
Perhaps, they can assist you on recovering your memories.
VOICE 1
These are?
VOICE 2
(Altered Two Chinese Words)
VOICE 1
What? Pardon me?
VOICE 2
The Mirror of Perfect Clarity and the Mirror of Hearts…
One reveals the objective aspect of your past life, not only from your perspective but also from others who are involved in your death; and the other reveals the subjective aspect...by reflecting your deepest thoughts and feelings.
With these two mirrors, we can figure out how you died and why more thoroughly...
Now, which specific point should we start with? Should we simply start from the date of your birth?
VOICE 1
Wait! There's something else I remember now. A date...there's a date that keeps buzzing in my head!
VOICE 2
Oh! And what's that?
VOICE 1
23rd of...October...2008...8 days before Halloween...
VOICE 2
Well, if that's the only thing you clearly recall other than your pain, then we should start from there…
