There is a lingering mystery that has been haunting me for centuries, one that I cannot seem to shake off no matter how hard I try. It all revolves around Seiko's statue - the very object that holds the key to my existence in this modern world.
For years, I have watched as offerings were placed at the feet of the statue, whispered prayers and secrets shared with it under the guise of tradition. And yet, nobody truly understands its power or significance beyond mere superstition.
As Yuko's ancestor, I am bound by duty to protect her bloodline and ensure our legacy lives on. But there are times when even I struggle with the weight of history upon my shoulders. The switch hidden within that innocent-looking doorstop holds a power unlike any other, one that can bring both salvation and destruction in equal measure.
The nights when I take control over Yuko's body are both exhilarating and terrifying. To walk among humans once more, to feel their warmth and hear their voices whispering secrets unknowingly into my ears - it is a sensation like no other.
But each time I awaken from those stolen moments of freedom, guilt gnaws at me from within. Is it right for me to manipulate Yuko in such ways? To use her as a vessel for my own desires and needs?
I ponder these questions endlessly as time marches on relentlessly. The answers elude me still, trapped within the confines of this mortal coil where choices must be made regardless of consequence.
And so here I stand today - torn between duty and desire, longing for something greater than myself while chained by bonds forged long ago. The mystery of Seiko's statue remains unsolved but perhaps one day soon its secrets will be revealed...and with them my true purpose in this world.
