"Pathetic, I really thought I could do something heroic, hah!" Takezo laughed upon coming to the sight of a clearing with a well and nobody around. He allowed himself to fall onto his back, arms outstretched, just laughing at himself. Once he was completely out of breath, he just stared up at the sky... and saw smoke coming from somewhere relatively nearby. He paused, thinking about his next course of action. Should he investigate and try to play hero again? Or should he just lie there in some odd variant of self pity?
