What She Had Experienced

Aldrian remained silent, listening as she described his essence.

"Vast void and golden light, huh," he then recalling the lines he had repeated countless times.

I'm tied to the universe.

I'm tied to nature.

All of this is my own karma.

"Is my true nature really the universe and the 'nature' itself?" Aldrian wondered to himself.

"What kind of essence is that? I truly don't understand."

"Then, can you explain my essence?" he asked.

"No, you're inexplicable. I can describe others—like a psychopath addicted to murder and torture, for example. I see ugly scenes, like rotting corpses or wailing souls, I could describe it as hell. The opposite is true for good people who help others, they radiate a warm aura and are surrounded by a comforting light, attracting others."
