As the sun went down Jin sat in a tree looking down at the beast roaming around as he saw his soul partner suddenly appear again. He hadn't see him in since the protection trial where after he went into the city the soul went on his own but now he came over back towards him for some reason. Jin then looked towards the beast on the ground thinking maybe he should get some killing down but he simply closed his eyed slowly drifting to sleep. As he tried to go to sleep a warm feeling wrapped around him as instead of directing him to a dream it pushed him into another place.

Jin's ?????
As Jin looked all around he saw doors and so many doors with different writing and pictures on them he then looked around seeing a couple butterflies flying around. Jin took in a deep breath as butterflies flew away from him landing on some doors as they began to turn the doors into more butterflies flying around trying to go to more doors. A sudden feeling out something leaving came to Jin as he tried to remember what he was doing but but he couldn't remember like it was gone.
As he looked around he got close to a door opening it seeing a bright joyful memory of him and his father baking a chocolate cake together and when they finished they enjoyed the nice treat while they both had a huge grin across their faces. As a butterfly landed on it he felt it slip away as he tried to grab hold of it but it bursted into a bunch if butterflies flying around turning more memories into butterflies.
Jin focused mana around his hand as he fired off a mana ball destroying the butterflies in its path. He looked around and knew thay even if he could kill all of the butterflies he wouldn't be able to stop them from expanding their numbers. He decided to run as he saw almost all his memories fade except this old door that looks like one tap would break it. As he got there he saw a butterfly land on it but he instantly covered his finger in mana and killed it. As the butterflies flew to the door he didn't remember why he was killing them or protecting this door but all of his body was telling him to kill them before they touch this door.
The mini finger blade split apart many butterflies as a cold sweat ran down Jin's face after killing what seemed to be at least a thousand butterflies. The butterflies soon came down on him as he wanted to kill them but he felt trapped as the butterflies surrendered him no showing any escape. As the butterfly dome was made a group of butterflies formed what seemed to be a man with long silky blonde hair with blue eyes that flowed like that of the ocean. The man cracked his knuckles as he smiled gently at Jin but Jin felt a sudden feeling like he was missing something vital.
Jin instincts flared as he ran towards the dome trying to shot open a hole with a mana blast but he felt like he forgot and then just tried to charge through but the butterflies pushed him back. He then felt the butterflies start to close in on him as the man slowly walked towards him. The man then walked up to him looking up to him and asked, "Do you know the most important things about a human?" Jin couldn't answer as he was trying to find a way out and try to stop these memories from spilling out.
The man said, " Well since you don't seem to wanna answer I'll just tell you. It is quite simple the answer is the memory now you may ask why and I would normally think your crazy but since your losing your memory I think you wouldn't understand. Anyways the reason why is that one holds everything in their memory and like you who forgot will lose everything like their feelings towards people, how to use mana and even how to breathe eventually."
The butterflies then disappeared as a single broken door was in Jin's line of sight as he then ran towards the door but it then bursted in butterflies as the man walked behind him with a smile. Jin looked down seeing a part of the wooden door broken off making a shape of a key he then picked it up and saw a keyhole on the floor and the turned it falling down into this locked memory. The butterfly man yelled as he gathered up all his butterflies turning them into a memory ball as he looked through it.

In Jin's memory
As he looked around he saw a young himself playing a game of chess with someone who looked be his grandmother but couldn't tell since he didn't have most of his memories. As he played they where both silent focusing on the game as the old woman moved a piece saying, "Checkmate." Young Jin tried to look for a way to get out of it but he sighed as he felt upset about losing but he felt a pat of his head from the old woman.
The old woman then saw a car as she walked towards the door walking out seeing Jin's mother come out. Both Jin's began to tremble even though older Jin forgot about this woman as she walked towards the door. The old woman face was filled with disgust as she handed Jin over even though it hurt her so much. Jin didn't want to move but he as she glared at him he moved his legs and then she said, "Once you get home your gonna be punished." The older Jin saw the memory turn to black as he started to return to the memory world.

Back in the memory realm
Jin then saw the butterfly man as he looked like he had been crying the butterfly man started to talk, "I wanted to take memories from everyone to inflict pain but you man would have more pain if you had these." He put the ball on Jin's head as it began to sink in then he began to walk away but he turned around and said, "Oh yeah by the way the bone man is currently near you so watch out when you get out." As he walked out the butterflies flew around as the made up the doors making Jin memories return to him as he shed a tear but he then walked towards the real world.

In the real world
Jin looked around seeing the skeleton man chasing a group of seven people and he sighed as he knew it would be best to attack while in a group as he took out the almost broken sword and jumped towards the skeleton man still in the suit.
