I loved the second part of the story, but there just isn't enough of the 1st to make sense to me. What happened to Ryou that he died and why is Baku still around? Shouldn't he disappear and return to the ring?
Is there more to this tale?

There's a lot more to it, but what with one thing and another, I haven't got around to writing it all out. I do intend to finish, though. Thanks for the comment.
