Unlike the historical Miyamoto Musashi, this one you encountered was a woman. Perhaps from a world of Pruning Theoretical Phenomenon.
 |

She may have been one who travels between worlds via some special means, or even a living human rather than a Heroic Spirit...

I had nothing to go on but what you told me,[sr]and the circumstantial evidence.

And there was one more thing, something that kept nagging at me personally.

Nonetheless, now that I go by Kojirou, I cannot ignore the mark that Shinmen Musashi has made upon the world.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 | 
						||
Knowledge of The Book of Five Rings was bestowed upon me when I was summoned as a Servant, whether I wished it so or not.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 |

As such, I know it quite well, though I cannot say how comprehensible its contents will be to you, [&Lord:Lady] [%1].
 |

[k]
 |

 |

@Sasaki Kojirou
 |

Everything up to the Book of Earth and the Book of Water can be interpreted easily enough. But beyond that, it is more a book of riddles than a manual.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 | 
						||
Its final chapter, the Book of Void, is nothing more than a scrap that lays Musashi's feelings bare.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 | 
						||
Nor are they described in a tangible, material manner. Void discusses what lies beyond... The karmic laws one's eye can see.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 | 
						||
And the concept of “zero,” which at the time was at the very bleeding edge of Buddhist studies.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 | 
						||
Indeed, it reads more like a philosophical treatise created to help the reader accept this new way of thinking.

 |

@Sasaki Kojirou

Rather, she is a woman with thin arms who wields two katana, claims to be Musashi, and aspires to perfect her swordsmanship, hmm.

[k]

@Sasaki Kojirou

Fascinating. She sounds very much[sr]like me, and yet entirely different.
 |

[k]
 |

 |

@Sasaki Kojirou

I may be Sasaki Kojirou, but inside, I am merely a single manifestation of one of the many legends surrounding him.

@Sasaki Kojirou

But you say this mysterious Musashi you met is apparently THE Musashi, rather than one of his manifestations.

[charaFace B 1]

 |

[charaFace B 0]

According to other swordmasters, that is what Musashi said to Kojirou after the latter had cast aside his scabbard of his own accord while awaiting Musashi on Ganryu Island.
 | 
						||
[k]
 | 
						||
 |

@Sasaki Kojirou

There are numerous interpretations of their duel,[sr]but there are no lines more famous than this.
 |

[k]
 | 
						||
 |

@Sasaki Kojirou
 |

As such, those words would prove that this Musashi was indeed who she claims.
 |

[k]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
@Sasaki Kojirou
 |

Perhaps you even came to believe she was Musashi because you had heard her speak that line,[sr][&Lord:Lady] [%1]?
 |

[k]
 |

 |

?1:No, she never said anything like that.

However, as this matter concerns Chaldea's sole Master, it is of utmost importance. As such, I shall be continuing my investigation.

Seeing as it's such a nice day, I decided this was a good time and place to eat. I unwrapped my meal and was just getting ready to eat when you suddenly fell from the sky.

I tried calling to you and slapping you awake, but you were out like a lantern, so I figured I was in for a day of waiting around here to keep an eye on you.

But then you just went and woke up on your own, like Yajirobe.

I see your luck is still as strong as ever. Or maybe Lady Kannon has taken you under her protection.
