Your arranged marriage to a prominent feudal lord has always been a happy one or so you thought. When he suspects your lack of fertility, he takes up a mistress much to your dismay. Your sister, no less!
The overwhelming depression forces you into...

...has perished.
Cold. Dark. Alone. Despite all I've grown. Drowning in sorrow, hoping for a new morrow.
Where has our love gone? What we had, what we done. I leave nothing behind, except my broken mind.
To my protector. My assailant, my paramour. You, who torments my reality, are the reason I am at death's sea.
But we will be together again. And I will fall for you again. Till death do us part, set free my heart.
The words of your soul soothe the tears in your heart, and when you finally find peace, your life reignites again.
Your eyes open to witness a world in flames. Bodies litter the ground, and beasts run amok. The pain in your body no longer bothers you, but you can sense the lack of blood in your system. Something feels off. You no longer detect a humanity within you yet you carry your same emotions.
"What have you done, Tobirama?"
The familiarity of the voice tethers you to the world, awakening you in totality. Your eyes lock with a Mangekyo Sharingan, one who appears maddened. Finally, finally. Finally. You recognize the man before you and his name. "Ma-da-ra?" Your ability to form sentences fails you at first, but with practice, your diction flows easier. "To-birama. Where a-am I?"
Only bits of your past surmise, but nothing explains your current location and the status of the world.
"Are you not happy to see her?" Tobirama's voice touches sarcasm in a way you've never heard before.
"What is this debauchery?" he growls. "How dare you massacre her slumber."
"How dare you defile the world she loved!" Tobirama yells. His voice booms over the mountains, expressing his deepest despair. "You started this war! You took away her daughter. You killed her clan, your clan, and then all of her family. You even killed our son!"
The man sounds borderline insane with agony, but at the mention of your son, you understand the reason behind the tragedy of his emotions. Your heart stutters then breaks. "My family... My baby boy... Yusei?"
Tobirama stares at you. There are no emotions that grace his face as it seems he has discarded his humanity. "Yes. He killed your sisters, the Umemoto clan, Kakashi, Yusei, your son's cousins, Tsunade and Kawaki. He killed so many."
"Why?" you gasp softly. Tension dances upon the atmosphere, and you notice the rest of the area's occupants. Hiruzen and Sakumo are off in the distance, staring at you in horror, while there are several others unrecognizable to you. "Were you not to protect me, Madara?!" you cry out. Your memories of him have all returned with a vengeance, that to hear of his actions burns your very soul. "Madara, you promised!"
