"You are right to say that I am 'walking aimlessly'… the search for inner truth is more difficult than searching for anything else in the world…"
"I myself do not know what 'path' I should choose, what method I should use, and what should be the direction where my journey should go…"
A trace of self-doubt appeared on Rio's face as he sipped his tea and stared at the warm flames of the bonfire.
Just like his own dying heart, these flames were dying out slowly due to the influence of the snowing and miasma in the area.
"Just like you are confused on what to do about your miasma-inflicted clan elders and what to choose for the future…"
"I am the same; I am confused about what to choose for my future too…"
Hearing Rio's words and seeing his calm and collected demeanor, Ratna's heart calmed down a lot, and he asked his friends to head back to their own tent for the time being and not mention Rio to anyone.
