This is the dialogue between my friend (M) and me when my friend was not feeling well, because his leg was dislocated, and he couldn't walk fast.
M : Whenever I got any illness, I feel useless...

Eluding the true horror we must meet
Embodied in the play of our pretense,
Now ranged across the night in our defense...

Shirogane Prayer

to you as well as everyone around us.
And I pray that one day we'll find peace and happiness!
