[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

Nobuo was not very happy with this news. All of his life, or at least what he remembered, he never had such severe punishments for going against the rules. And now he knew that there were even more things he had to follow to avoid such harsh penalties. He lifted the necklace and stared at it, and despite being told that he was accepted as a son based on his spirit, he still didn't think he fit in like he used to. Though he wondered just how much more upset he would be if he had any of his old memories. He sighed and allowed the necklace to rest on his chest, "So all we can do is follow and make someone else happy, just to protect our skins and those of the ones who are close to us... I'm sure there's a way out of this..." He tried to reassure himself with that fact, whether or not it was possible to change their fate, "Let's go back.. I'm sure there's a meal waiting.." After hearing all of what Rie had said, he had lost his appetite. Although he hoped that once he got back to the temple, that he would feel a little better.
