So, hi friends. It's time for the thing that's probably been expected since late last night.

Koto just learned that her best friend is dead.

Her best friend, who has helped her through so many problems and moments of development as a character that it isn't funny. Her personal hero, her rock, one of the two people in the world that she cared for more than anyone, who she would have done absolutely anything for. She's held Koto as she's openly wept, guided her through the toughest emotional moments as a character, picked her up when she felt like she was absolutely nothing. More than even Ansem, she's the character that's by far had the most impact on Koto, and will continue to have that impact even past her death.

What's worse is that this death, in Koto's eyes, could have been stopped. It was completely pointless - she lost her best friend for the express reason of -jackshit-. The perpetrator of this awful incident, this life-shattering news, is none other than the man she's grown to hate worse than she ever did even Nozomi... Kobayashi, Matsuo. He's the one who forced her back into that forest with her critical injury, leading to her death.

It's enough to completely break Koto mentally.

I'm applying for Sharingan III. I feel like it's probably too early, but WoN seems to move at a faster pace overall than most of these Naruto RP games - I'm willing to give it a shot, just because I don't think there's going to be a moment like this again. I'm genuinely certain it will not happen this wipe. So, better to try.
