Dead and disappeared, a presence that cannot be seen...

So it was all a dream... I think that I must be working myself too hard lately, because it all had seemed so real.
Though I'm not usually not one to complain about stress or anything else that would cause me to have such a strange dream, I think that I will choose to take it easy for awhile. Sai is recovering from his fever, and so time should allow for that much.

If nothing else, such a dream has given me a lot to reflect on. From the figures that appeared in my dream, one of them was a young girl who seemed to know much about me personally. Her words were a cause for concern, and so I am going to investigate it once the wound in my neck heals a bit more. Among the others were a traveling priest and a young boy who introduced himself to me. I cannot believe that I have already forgotten their names, because they both seemed so lost and confused when I met them. Finally, one of the last things I remembered about my dream is meeting myself in it. It was such a strange thing, almost as if I had lived an entirely different existence but still remained... myself. No, maybe that much shouldn't be so surprising. Still, I was able to learn a few things about her "world" while she was here, and I even saw her getting in touch with Sai. I'm sure if he remembers it, then he will still have questions about it later. I only wish I knew the answers.

I am eager to leave his hospital, and so I'm glad that there has been much progress in the last few days.

Once I get out of here, I will resume my search for a weapon. I do not like feeling so defenseless, and a scalpel will not serve any practical use in combat.
