   Summary

   Nepenthe; in ancient Greek text, it was described as a drug to forget sorrow or grief. Yoichi believed in no such things. Obliviousness to something as painful as that would be a miracle, and brushed it off in whatever text it was mentioned in.

   After being saved from the clutches of his own mortality, however, he started to wonder maybe if Nepenthe was less of a drug, and more of an induced feeling. If anything, the hand that reached out to save him soothed whatever past haunted him.
