Dear Obito-sama,

I've seen things, in my life, some so terrible as to make grown men scream and whimper, and I was utterly unmoved. Because it was Danna-sama's work, and none of it seemed as monstrous as some of the stories Grandfather once told me. That's what I thought, at least. But is it more than that? I have killed men. I am not a shinobi, nor a samurai. A normal civilian woman would be much more fragile, I think.

A man tried to either rob or rape me today, and I killed him. He was not the first, and likely will not be the last. I rolled his body into a ditch and left. I didn't even think twice about it.

I wonder, is there something wrong with me?

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko
