Limits

Change demands adaptation.
Juubei learns to follow strings with his hands as they lead him through the rooms. Knots tell him where he is. Bells on doors and windows let him know of movement, be it air or enemy.
Kazuki defines Juubei's world. That, at least, has not changed.
Chains
Change demands adaptation.
Kazuki learns the name of every ophthalmologist in Japan. When he looks at things, he describes them in his head for unseeing eyes. He has no time of his own now, not without purpose.
Juubei's blindness has put chains around Kazuki's hands. They only hurt sometimes.
