Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu read the names on the tablets and saw a few with the surname Lin but not the same one as his. His surname meant 'Forest' but the ones here meant other things.

'Seems like none of my ancestors are here… wait, so why did father come here to pray?' Lin Mu wondered.

While the commoners also came here to pray, it was mostly because at least one of their ancestries at some point in time would be venerated here. But from what he could see no one of his could be seen. Still, no matter how much Lin Mu thought he couldn't figure out a reason for his father coming here.

"Did you Father ever see the tablets himself?" Xukong asked Lin Mu.

"No, he didn't… oh wait… I understand now." Lin Mu replied as he realized.

'He never knew… most of the commoners in the region had a link to the same family line thus would have an ancestor here. But seems like father just went with that idea in mind and came to pray here every year.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Now that he thought about it, Lin Mu felt a bit sad for his father. He had passed on and yet never knew that there was no one to listen to his prayers. Lin Mu's heart ached for his father and mother again making his hands tremble ever so slightly even though he tried to control.
