Kind of off-topic:
You guys are probably wondering I was out the entire day today.
I'll try to make this as brief as possible:
-went to some province
-climbed a good portion of the mountain for 30 minutes; hugely thank my DDR stamina and strength for making this a breeze
-rest for a bit
-
squirmed a cave which it's opening is even smaller than an expedition backpack.-rest for a bit
-
climbed the rest of the mountain for 90 minutes and being one of the 10 out of 90 people to be able to do it-went back down the mountain for 45 minutes
-
walked for a while to get to the waterfall... the same like climbing down the freaking mountain.-stupidly dipped my tired feet in the cold water of the waterfall reservoir
Basically the path was just cleared, so no roads or anything flat to step on. That was a major pain in the feet, literally.
So the cave squirming? It wasn't easy. I can't describe it over the internet properly though, but I'll try my best.
It was a sacred cave, so we had to come in barefooted...
Actually, the opening wasn't that small immediately on entrance, but eventually it did become so small, but I can't describe how really small it is without a visual aid of sorts. But basically, it required me to squirm like a worm just to get out of it, and remember that this cave is naturally formed, so you can imagine everyone getting bruises everywhere.
However for me, I kept getting stuck at a lot of nooks within that cave. What's worse here was that the exit was freaking vertically up, meaning that if I slip my hand or foot wrongly I can potentially die. Seriously.
I was reaching that point where I was pretty much breathing too heavily and thus I can't do much movements anymore as my strength was leaving me. As much as how blasphemous it is for my religion, I actually prayed to the Goddess of Hope herself, Kibou, to at least make my strength last for to get out of this cave; I was actually already just acting rashly and not caring anymore before this, until I found myself actually stuck. This is when I prayed to Kibou )I always close my eyes for a while and I can quickly form images from the blank sheet on my vision there), and thus I did get some strength to pull myself up another time and stride...
But without knowing it I suddenly hit my head so hard on a stalactite after I pulled myself up, and I can really still feel the bump even now. This made me flinch, closing my eyes a bit... then I saw

for some reason, and I heard a faint laughter. This got me startled a bit, and I was like "oh god, I shouldn't be thinking that stuff here." then proceeded to climb and bruise my hand in the process...when later I actually accidentally rubbed my neck across one of the rock formation on the walls again which really made me screech in pain for a while, making my eyes close a bit while trying to suck up the pain of both the neck and the rest of my body. While my eyes were closed I swear I could seriously hear her saying "repent... repent...!" Which got me so shitscared after that and I think I found myself both crying and panicking at the same time as I was stuck in that really small cave. I tried to feel my neck for a bit and god damn did it have a lot of scratches! It's like she really wanted my head off or something...
You know what's even scarier after all this? I eventually found out that this god darn cave has this belief going about that the amount of hurt you bring out also tells of how heavy your burden of sins are. God damn it.
Next, while I was climbing the rest of the mountain. If it wasn't for aqua, I couldn't have kept imagining drawing Shimedore's shadow on the sky. Lol.
For the last bold part, well, obligatory "IM SO SORRY" moment for taking the entire sign out of context:

Aside from that, every other storytelling I have about this entire trip is too off-topic for this, so I'm leaving it here.
