Twisted Tales to Delight and Amaze

The Coming of Matsumoto

Once, there lived a being so powerful that by focusing his will on a single object, he could alter time around it. If he wanted to eat an orange and none were ripe, he would move time around the desired piece of fruit, and it was ready to eat in a matter of moments. He could, if willed, move through time and space as well. So it was that one day, while deep in meditation, Matsumoto felt a pull toward the future and, in an instant, was projected into the future and far to the west. This was different from Japan. Whatever drew him here, it must have been very powerful. He decided to explore and determine why he was brought to this time and place.
