Or maybe, through pure madness can peace be found.
Whichever way there seems to be no right answer to be found. Just a bumbling journey where one will and must trip up a couple of times before reaching the destination.
And in the end, understanding the difficulty of the journey will reveal the truth behind the finish line.
without conflict there will be no peace...and without peace hate will turn into justice... without difficulty there will be no achievement...and without a goal to achieve there will be no difficulty in life... without truth there will be no wisdom...and without wisdom there will be no truth... without hate there will be no love...and without love there will be no hate... without light there will be no darkness...and without darkness there will be no light... without ending there will be no beginning...and without beginning there will be no ending... without life there will be no death...and without death there will be no life... without chaos there will be no change...and without change there will arise more chaos until change happens for better or worse... without madness there will be no purity...and without purity vengeance turns into justice... without justice there will be no right or wrong....and without any right or wrong there will arise madness & chaos...
everything is connected one way or another...either it be through the gears that turn the wheel of life, the yin & the yang, nature itself, the fate of those who can't escape what they were born to be, or the destiny that is paved by those who rise towards what they want to achieve, what they want to become, what they want to be, and ultimately what they want to be remembered for...this connection is within everything in the universe and beyond...for it is existence itself...and coming to understand and feel each of these laws of existence is what will eventually allow you to see what you have achieved beyond the "finish line" that is existence itself.
It feels like dealing with family. The personalities will clash, they will fight, they will grieve, and basically the only thing they won't do is trying to understand each other. Or maybe sometimes it's not even anyone's fault. Some really bad shit outside your control happened, and you can do nothing but withstand its effect.
And worst thing is, it's a status quo that reinforces itself. People will almost never grow, even as years pass, especially concerning addictions. We like stories so much because character development is so simple there. IRL, it's long and ardous, almost invisible. Fights and other unpleasant stuff will keep breaking out despite your best efforts, for the same stupid reasons, a vicious cycle you can't break.
Hecatia is in a fix here. Can't change the past, can't decisively solve the present either. So she grins and bears it. But that thing takes a toll on people, and someday, years and invasions later, you may find that you have a breaking point as well, Hecatia...
seems like Junko and Clownpiece (and Hecatia as well) are better now than they were before, and Hecatia has grown to like the current situation, but maybe this might be Hecatia's own sand castle, and if Junko does put an end to her own past, friendships, history, etc, all that's left for Hecatia is to cherish the moments. Doesn't have to be this way, though..
I have grown to like my little kingdom.Kyaa! Me next, me next!Hey, what's this loop thingy?Of course.That, you stick this branch here...We don't have an attraction where you cannot graze,is a "pure madness".And it rolls like this!End.I don't want to see it end. Like a sand castle swept away by the wind and the waves.Even if what its citizens wish for...nor any goods to sell, but......Yeah.or a clown from a hoax,
