On the day I was fully formed to function, I immediately knew my purpose: it was to help my creator, the World Tree, to take care of the souls of those who died. To place their soul beads to the root of the golden soil for them to live again in other place and time.
The World Tree is The World Tree, and it has only one form. I hear it speak for times, I hear it sorrow, I hear it guide.
"Yosha, you weren't the only one I created." It said to me as I was placing the soul bead of the King who has passed away due to a massacre. "They've all went to the Gods in Heaven Palace, to unite with the lovers they fell with. I do not regret granting them such human emotions, but I feel sad they do not visit me anymore. They are my children."
I sat in front of the World Tree and look at it. My sight has been a slight blurry because of my hair. I do not know how to cut my hair.
"I am sorry, Yosha." I do not speak. I only stare at the World Tree. I do not know what it is sorry for. "I couldn't give you any human emotion."
I only nodded my head, I do not know what it is talking about.
The soul beans fell from above as I stand and catch them. I place them on the soul and close my eyes.
May you be with one of your own.
The World Tree told me stories of the four realms. The Human Realm, The Demon Realm, The Heaven Palace, and The World Tree Realm.
The Human Realm, where certain kinds of creature lives. The humans, animals, plants, and everything that breathes and not breathes. I was the one who's catching their souls when they died to be reborn again. It said to me that they have emotions, to which I haven't been granted. They have magic and powers too. Different kinds.
It's alright, as long as I do not know what it is.
The Demon Realm, where the bad creatures lives. They are forbidden to enter the Human Realm because they might corrupt them. They do not die or reborn. They are as it is. They are locked up in their realm. Only their leader is allowed to exit and enter the realm as it pleases.
The Heaven Palace, where the Gods and Goddesses resides. They have ultimate powers to help humans live a better life. They are the ones who's the humans are praying for for guides and blessings. They work for the balance of good and evil.
The World Tree Realm, where I am at. The World Tree is the beginning, the endless being of everything. Everything exists because it exists. It is the caretaker, the soul of everyone, of everything. It knows it all. In this realm, time does not exists. Time is only granted for humans. Time is nothing.
For times, I was hiding behind the World Tree because Gods and Goddesses visits it. The World Tree introduces me to them when they visited us three times.
Their faces are strange to me.
"Yosha, you do not need to hide." I nodded. "Promise me you won't hide anymore."
I nodded.
I lean to the World Tree and felt its liveliness.
One time, a young man came to the World Tree.
"Why you have cursed me?!" The young man asked. "Just because I am a son of a fallen God?!" Its voice is loud. So so loud that it woke me up from a deep slumber.
I peak from the tall grass to see.
"Child, you do not need to reside in the Heaven Palace anymore. You were meant in the Human Realm...for now. That's why I gave you human emotions." The World Tree spoke.
"...I do not want this. I want to reclaim my father's honor in the Heaven Palace!"
"One day, you'll understand."
The young man's eyes widened. Its knees fell to the golden soil and something was streaming from its eyes.
I looked at The World Tree. It seemed darker now. I walked my feet towards the young man. It lifted its head and looked at me.
"You are a soul bead." I spoke my first words. I looked at the World Tree and bowed my head.
"W...What are you talking about?"
I took his hand and close my eyes. "You will be honored. You will be bowed upon. Do not dig upon the pieces of your mind. Do not fill it with anything that corrupts."
I looked straight in the young man's eyes. His face is strange. Although something's streaming down its face, it was sparkling.
"You are a soul bead." I repeated.
I close my eyes once again and turned him into a light. I planted its soul bead to the golden soil before I turned to the World Tree. It's lighter now.
"Yosha,"
"Hmm?"
"The man is the son of the fallen God from the Heaven Palace. Thank you for sending him to the Human Realm."
I nodded. "It's only a matter of time for him to be back again at the Heaven Palace. I saw it."
The World Tree burned lighter. "I am glad, Yosha."
"Hmm."
"You make the man fell to you, Yosha."
"Hmm?"
"He'll find you in the nearing time."
"For what?"
"For affection, Yosha."
"Alright."
I do not know what the World Tree means.
"I will sleep for now." I said to it as I lay my body on the golden soil. The World Tree's leaves fell, shivering. It gave me comfort.
I do not know how long did I close my eyes. I was just awoken by my creator.
"Yosha, wake up."
"Hmm?"
"The sould beads."
I look up and took a deep look. There was so many soul beads falling from above like it was never-ending. I catch them all, but there are too many. I won't be able to hold them all.
"I can not do it. Why?" I asked.
"Just let it fall to the golden soil, Yosha."
"I have to catch them."
"Blessed them as they fall."
I nodded and did what it said. I placed my hands above and closed my eyes. I let the light guide me to carefully take care of the soul beads. It was the longest process I did. When I was finished, I looked up to the World Tree.
"In the Human Realm, you have spent ten years taking care of all that sould beads."
"Is it many?"
"Yes, Yosha. Do not worry, I will teach you how life works at the Human Realm...because I will sent you there."
"Hmm?" I tilted my head.
"Yosha, the Demon Realm's gates has been opened, and people in the Human Realm are suffering. The soul beads you have taken care of, it was the lives of million human beings. The Human Realm is in danger. I do not want to do this, but I have to send you there."
I blinked a few times. It's hard for me to understand what it is saying. The World Tree always complicates me.
"...Send...in Human Realm? Yosha...what will Yosha do there?"
"You have to save the soul beads of the people being taken by the Demons, Yosha. It will be easy for you to do it as you have my endless blessings. You do not have to worry, as you will return here as soon as possible."
"...Return?"
"Yes. I will give you a human form and not a spirit form you have now, Yosha. But I cannot give you emotions."
"...Okay."
I do not know what the World Tree's saying again.
"Yosha, you will have to die in Human Realm to unite with this Realm, again. Do you get me?"
"...only now. Will I be a soul bead?"
"No, Yosha. You won't be a soul bead. You will be here in your spirit form just like now."
"...But I am human there, aren't I?"
"Yes. But you are my child, Yosha. You are different."
"...Okay."
I tilted my head and lean on the World Tree as it told me stories. In the Human Realm where it'll send me, there are five kingdoms where the Demons Infiltrated. The Summer Kingdom, The Rainy Kingdom, The Autumn Kingdom, The Winter Kingdom, and The Spring Kingdom.
As the name of their Kingdom says, their place is at it is. The human bodies began to equip themselves with their place' seasons. Although they experience other seasons, almost half of a year they experience their kingdom's main season.
I tried to get it me what the World Tree said about everything. It took me us a long long long time, but I am not tired of hearing stories. I want to listen.
"You won't lose your powers, Yosha."
"...Alright."
"You will be alright in the Human Realm, Yosha. You will meet kind human beings, you will be with them on your journey."
"Hmm."
"I will send you there now."
"...Okay."
I stand up and close my eyes. A big bright light come towards me as I felt its warmth. It felt as if I am falling.
