================================================================== Introduction. From The myth of the shade. ==================================================================							Contents
		This English edition was rewritten in November 6, 2004. But, since I don't know English so well, it doesn't know whether this expression is proper or not. In passing, the writing about The myth of the shade started from 1979 year was completed in 1997 year for the moment, and was issued in Just Net in 1997 year. But, it was rewritten into the homepage supported by Nifty in 2003 from unavoidable circumstances. Hiromasa Noguti.
	About twenty years ago, I had fallen into the pitfall concealed to the darkness of the society before noticing. If said as the actual feeling, it may be better to say it has fallen into a trap. And, it doesn't seem it could escape out of there even now. However, it has become intelligent a little in that benefit. Not until it fell there, it is because it, noticing oneself knowing nothing, could realize one's weakness and also shallow mind. Therefore, it can assert the wisdom given to me is the gift of the loneliness and the darkness doubtlessly. Though strange, it is that I acquired the mysterious ability and force soon, with roaming the darkness like that with the intuition and the compass of the logic.
				However, until that time, it couldn't think empirically at all though it may have been easy work for the other persons. First of all, what is a human being ? Then, what is this world born out of ? How, in what kind of principle or rule does this world move ? And, why have I been given the birth to this world ? What kind of thing would I be for me and for the world ? Once I knew nothing even of those. However, if it can know about those some, or can't I see a silver lining ? I, holding the faint expectancy in the dark pitfall, started to think of these problems though the way of the thinking may have been immature a little.
	However, in what means can I find out those truths ? It was the difficulty it decides the course of the reasoning at once because it had nothing of the means like that. So, whether it likes it or not, it had to learn others' wisdom. And, fortunately, it could learn some wisdom though it may be superficial. Of course, it is impossible it understands all in the wisdom like that. And, it originally wasn't the truth of kind able to know in only the others's wisdom. As a matter of fact, it is because it had to look for it in the depths of one's mind at the last step. Therefore, whether it likes it or not, I had to think about oneself as the habitant of Japanese islands and as creature. Moreover, it also had to think of the relationship of the physical world and oneself as well. It seems to be natural methodology because I have been living under the environment like that since I were given the birth to this world. Anyhow I went exploring one's mind in the uncanny and lonely darkness with such methodology.
	The story to be stated here is the aspect of one possibility world born out of the consideration like that. And, it is the truth doubtlessly as far as it is in that possibility world. But, as for a part of the aspect like that, it can't assert it isn't the future of this world because it is the aspect of possibility world persistently. Therefore, whether it likes it or not, either, this story may be describing the aspect of this world though it may be only a mere part.
		It is the end(1980-1988) of Showa era. And, the place is, needless to say, Japan. However, this not only is the past story, but also is concerned deeply with present and future Japan. Really now, you will see a unknown force, oozing out to this world secretly, causes uncanny phenomenons gradually.
