<< I don't get it. They share the same faces and the same names with the ones that I remember; it must be them. But why won't they remember me? Are they faking? No. The Ryuk I know won't lie to me just so he can join Enma. He knows that it's more fun to be with me. But ... if they really don't remember ... then all of that didn't even happen to them. What if it was all in my mind? What if I have never been a human to begin with? No, that's not possible. I have a thousand death gods as witnesses. But still, there has to be an explanation. What if ... No. That's even less possible. Though I still have to take the idea into consideration. Anyway, I have to return to Swallow island. Swallow? Something seems to be strange, but I just can't put my finger on it. I'll think about it later, I have work to do now. >>
Light was still hanging on Ryuk's roof trying to figure out what was going on, but his mind wasn't as good as always today. Probably the usage of the Altar had finally started to leave it's mark on him.
Suddenly, he got up and stared around for a moment. Usually there was no reason to worry, but now there were a lots of death gods roaming around in the human world.
He opened his large wings and waited for another moment to be sure that no one was waiting for him around the corner. He then took off from the roof and set his destination towards the island.
An hour later, he arrived at Japan's border with the ocean and stopped to rest for a bit. He looked around again, but this time he was trying to pin point his own position.
<< Good, I'm almost there. I can see the the island from here. Huh? There's that strange feeling again. Something must definitely be wrong. >>
He stretched up a little and returned to his original course. Something was bothering him, but not even he knew what it was. It felt like he forgot something. Something important. He thought that this "something" could be relevant to this mystery that was going on.
But there was nothing he could do right now.
