After a bit more recovering, Banquo could feel himself becoming even stronger. The events with Twilight were now at the back of his mind, and he was ready to move forward. With this goal in mind, he set out through the swamps, on his way to the lands that lay outside his own. The trip to Konoha had re-ignited his fire for exploration, and now he was set out. His first destination was Oto, a country on the other side of the Land of Fire. He wondered if maybe it was a little dangerous to go so far from the village, but the thought simply excited him even more. He needed this little adventure after a week in the hospital. The doctors had even supported him, saying that his injuries were healed enough that he wouldn't have any handicap.
As he walked along, he ran a ringer down the car on his forearm, remembering the pain he needed to inflict to rid himself of Twilight's genjutsu. The technique had been powerful, un-like anything he had every seen. It broke his mind and opened him up. If she had that kind of mental power, he couldn't imagine what an even stronger user had the ability to do. It almost sickened him to think that someone would be able to have so much ability to invade his space. As he walked, he thought about how he might combat it.
