Why does my body feel so heavy?' I thought, trying to get up, but my body was not letting me. 'Why is my mind so hazy?' I thought as I looked around but there was nothing, 'I need to get up...' I tried to move my body but it didn't listen to me. 'What is going on? Why can't I move?' I asked myself but I knew no one would answer me, after all, it's not like anyone is in this black, endless void with me. My eyes slowly opened but what I saw was completely unexpected, I slowly got up and looked around.

It wasn't Ava's apartment nor was it my bedroom and it wasn't the black void either, where was I exactly? I walked on to see if there was some kind of exit around me, however there were all shorts of books instead. They remind me of the books on Daemos but I don't understand, I finally found some light as I sprint towards it, reaching my hand out to grasp it.

I went tumbling to the ground, I groaned as I got myself back up and looked around, my eyes widened, I know where I am but how did I get here? I was back on Daemos, more importantly, I was in the Royal Archives. 'how was I able to enter, why am I here? I don't wanna be here!' I thought in a panic, sliding down to the ground and holding my head.

"I want to be back on Earth with Ava!" I cried while I felt tears stroke down my cheeks "I don't want to be left out again, I don't want to be left behind again, I DON'T WANT TO FEEL WORTHLESS!" I shouted, everything around me seemed to crack before everything seemed to fade to black. I opened my eyes again to see I was in my room, everything felt fine for the most part, at least that's what I thought, "wait, wasn't I in the spell pool?" I mumbled to myself. I tried to sit up, nothing, tried again, the same result.

I gave up, everything was so blurry so I probably would've run into something, I heard multiple people come into my room then started talking but it was muffled. I felt someone grab my right hand then my left, who was there? 'Ava, is it you?' I thought, 'Or maybe Rhys?' I closed my eyes again. "Everyone settle down, she isn't dead!" a voice reassured, 'Ava...'. Then came another voice, "When will she wake up?", 'Rhys?', "I hope she wakes up soon..." a voice sobbed 'That's Noi.. .' , "Yes" a monotone voice said, "Please wake up soon...." a voice cried out. Everything resumed to black.
