As I made my way to the temple, I ran into three deer who took me by surprise. They bombarded me with sniffs. My only escape was backwards, yet they followed me! It made me remember why I liked single deer that did not see me coming. Pah! Bombarded! What a coward I was. Next time I shall try to be braver.

I then made my way to the temple to rest. Thank goodness it was quiet. I watched the beautiful scenery, and was reminded why I love this place so. Everything was normal. Everything was pristine. Everything was going my way.

Even the ghosts slept and found solace in this place of the graves.

It seems no one I knew was around today. Still, I will always have the forest to lie beside me and keep me company.

As I sit and look out among the poppy flowers, I find myself waiting for something.

I just wish I knew for what.

Edit: The scariest thing just happened! I've never been so terrified in my life. My goodness me! A deer was walking backwards. In good fashion I bowed and tilted my head curiously at him. Of course he continued walking backwards, so I joined him in his awkward stroll through the woods.

A few seconds later he disappeared, thus throwing me for a loop. There was no fading into the light as some deer do, no puff of smoke, nothing. The mysterious triangle must have taken her, for I know not of anything else that would cause such a disturbance.

I must say I was rather taken aback. Was this what I was supposed to be waiting for?
