In a room where an ancient clock ticks away the time, Taikobo sits facing Ohtenkun, who asks him what his choice will be. Ohtenkun's question leads Taikobo on a journey through his own memories... and each of those memories is linked to Ohtenkun's. Yozen, Supushan, the Buseioh, and all the others Taikobo has met face him in turn. Eventually, after a span of time in which past, present, and future seem to intermingle, the mysteries of the Hoshin Project's history come unraveled.

أنت تكره الصراع حقًّا، أليس كذلك؟
Du lehnst jede Form von Gewalt ab, wie?
De verdad detestas el conflicto.
Detestas el conflicto.
Tu détestes vraiment
toute forme de violence…
Tu proprio non sopporti la violenza, vero?
Você odeia mesmo conflitos, não é?
Ты и правда не выносишь насилия?
