Sigh, I guess that after all this time death finally caught up to me. It wasn't a long run but i tried my best, at the very least I'll be dying while watching my favorite show avatar but as I'm dying I wonder what would it be like if I was in the sequel (tlok) could I have changed the course of events and make things better for the people of (tlok.) I don't know but one thing is for certain, I will be happy. as Musuko is thinking this he slips into a deep sleep never to awaken again.
Why am I so cold? I feel as if the blistering winds are freezing my muscles from the inside. Welcome traveler, who said that questioned Musuko. I am the guardian of purgatory and you have a long journey ahead of you, but for now let's just get you warm. We change scenes and we see the guardian talking to Musuko while drinking tea, there are three gates and three great tests in order move onto the after life. Well what are these tests, that is for you to find out but I can tell you what happens. What do you mean? I mean that if you fail all three tests you shall go to hell and if you pass two you will be stuck wandering purgatory for the rest of eternity slowly losing yourself and finally if you pass all three you will get what you sought most in your life. My only question now is when do you want to start.
I would like to start as soon as possible. Alright then please follow me this way, Musuko follows the guardian and he leads him to three spiraling portals each emitting a different light, one white one grey and one golden. Now please walk into the white portal and began your first test. As I walk into the portal I feel a strange sensation washing over my body, it feels as if im being surrounded in a warm sea that I can breath in but at the same time is suffocating. As I am now completely through the portal I can see why I felt the things I did. I see a raging storm and sea clashing against one and another but neither one is wining or losing, just stuck in an endless fight in which they both tare each other apart. I feel sad while watching this but as I'm thinking I hear a voice inside my head saying (I am the spirit of the first gate and I have something I want you to do, go to the the top of the mountain behind you and collect me the fruit of knowledge, when you get it for me throw it off the mountain and into the water and you shall go free) I turn around seeing the mountain it was talking about and wondered how that got there but decide not to question it.
I look up trying to see the peak but fail to do so as the clouds are blocking it, I start by walking up the path on the side of the mountain whiles the bone chilling wind and salty water spraying in my face pushing me back but I will forward and walk up the rest of the path with it ending on a cliff. I look up to see how far I've gotten and see that I've barely gone up at all still seeing that there are hundreds of feet of the mountain left to go and look down to see that I'm only around fifty feet in the air and let out a sigh knowing that there is a long ways left to go. I start to climb the sharp wet rocks on the side of the mountain while the air cold air is pushing against my side I climb about one hundred feet, my muscles are on fire and just when I'm about to make it to the top of the cliff my foot slips and gets sliced open by a sharp rock. I can feel the warm stream of blood forming on my heal and the pain is great but I push forward reaching the top of the cliff where I am met by a dense jungle and while not at the top of the mountain I can finally see it estimating that it's about two hundred feet up.
As I am think about this I decide to start walking through the jungle, I walked in a straight line for about thirty minutes from what I could tell and some how ended up back at the cliff each time, I did this two more times once by trying to mark the trees so that I wouldn't get lost and the other by leaving a trail of sticks in the shapes on arrows both failed but then I notice a smell sweet smell that I could not before as I was to focused on trying to get to the mountain side. I close my eyes and following the scent with my nose as first I go straight then I take a left and then a right then I repeat this pattern and find my way to the mountain side. where then I climb to the top and find a small fruit hanging on a thin tree. I go to pick it and throw it into the ocean and when I do the spirit appears in front of me saying, Musuko you have managed to complete the task and I thank you for that but I must ask before I let you pass what did you learn from this?
Well I think that from what I have gathered walking up the path and climbing the cliff and mountain side I think it was supposed to teach me about hardship and how to endure it while the jungle taught me that sometimes I need to take things slow analyze my surroundings and adapt to them in order to win and achieve my goals. Good I am glad that you have learned something from this test and hereby allow you to pass and go back to the guardian with the blessing of the earth spirit, now go through that portal and leave me be.
