Hmm... not quite. Rather, the immediate time before I came here, I was actually quite enjoying the ability to exercise my own will, regardless of what others thought.
[grandpa was having a great time]
But for a large part of my life... I could not.
Rather, I was a tool to be used by others, and to witness their actions without ability to stop them.
I assume to a human that it would be. You all so desperately wish to claim your own destinies. It's admirable.
[but there is a smile nonetheless]
However it gave me plenty of time to observe others, to watch the ways in which they would only do what they thought was best at the time. Of course, it led to just as many failures as it did triumphs... and experiencing those emotions for myself is still incredibly different than watching.
But I suppose it did teach me a large amount of patience, and fondness.
[rather easily, and lune will trace the shape of a crescent moon]
My original name means 'crescent moon' and those were the shapes that were imprinted on my blade. Others would be kind enough to say that I was renowned as the most beautiful blade in history.
... I understand that what transpires here is a hardship on all of you... but regardless, I am happy for the chance to meet each of you as my current self.

So... What changed that made you able to be like the rest of us, now? Unless it was just being brought here.

A heart, hands, the emotions that come with being human... My master summoned me forth, so I may be able to fight for them and defend history.
It has been rather fun.

So... What were you before you were like this?

Okay. Well... I'm glad you're here with us like this, at least.
