Tonight I slept well, without those dreams,
Without that nightmare. I'm really glad about that yet... a bit anxious.
'What is the reason for this sudden change?' the question lingered in the back of my mind.
But I don't have time for that, after all.
“We are escaping” Alex whispered.
We were hiding from the guards, disguised as one of them.
It's was the the first time, I've left that room in my time spent here.
This might sound crazy but I'm sure that it's been around a couple years since, I have been prisoned in this land of the lost called 'Farner'.
All my life I believed that Farner was a place created by the human mind for the sake of religion, however ending up here, have decreased my resistance to accept the mythic.
The memories of the day, I was killed were still clear along with some other thing from my life.
But.. I won't let it end like this, not the way it did, I will get back there. Back there for only one reason, 'Denial'.
“Belladonna, we are almost there”
“Dont take my name, so casual-”
He covered my mouth, then slipped into a gap forcing me with him, his sudden action were a bit embarrassing for me, however realizing the fear that lied ahead ever emotion in my heart were taken away.
“shsss” he hussed.
A huge monster, with just as huge axe stood in front of us.
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
The dark gap, provided us some relief.
'It can't see us here!' my mind screamed with relief.
The huge minotaur, had an enormous body. If I were to compare it to something, I would say it was like a bull standing up right.
The terrifying aura that it carried was filled with lust for blood as if he craved for it.
His breath were released with huge stress.
And the horns on its head told a tale about what happens to those trying to escape.
It might be sudden but, in case I were to die again, which I'm not quite sure if is even possible, I would like to go through how I end up in this situation.
【Around 1-2 years ago】
It was dark, all I could see was darkness just like my regular nightmare, yet a bit different as if the horror was fleeing away, leaving behind a small bit of hope at the end of the route.
I walked down, my hands close to my chest.
And as I walk into the light I, heard those words.
“Hey, wake up”
An unfamiliar voice woke me up, I feel someone's hands shaking my body.
What happened? I ask myself.
The pain from earlier was gone leaving only a mild headache.
“Hey, are you okay?” I heard those word faintly, didn't I just died?
The memory of my death was fresh in my mind, I.. Died, yes.. I died there's no doubt about it. Then who is this person calling out to me.
I slowly opened my eyes, ignoring all resistance from my body I opened them fully yet all I could see was a bright light shining on me.
“Huh, so you are finally awake. I got a bit worried since you were asleep for days”
What?! I heard it right, didn't I?
Days?! I clearly remember it was just a few minutes ago that I was sitting in the council meeting.
My eyes gradually regains it's vision, revealing a young man around my age or a little younger.
He wore a flavescent armor, with a sword hanging to his side. The blonde of his hair matched his eyes.
His mouth left a sigh as his expression lossen up.
I didn't realized it by now but his hands were still resting on me.
I stoop up in a haste, the small amount of embarrassment in my mind, must have been clearly visible on my face.
“H.. H-How dare you tou-ch me?!!” I let out a complaint.
But even before giving him any time to reply, I realized something, that I missed.
“Where am I?” my blood ran cold as I observed the room we were in, it was a small stony room with grills as it's entrance .
It's not a prison is it?!
“It's Farner” the young man spoke up.
【 Current time 】
And that's how I met him. A lot of other sequences of events resulted in my current situation but for now, I chose to ignore them.
The two things that were driving me forward were this young man named 'Alex legacy' and the silver dagger I was killed with.
At first I wasn't sure why I had it but in one of the many conversations Alex and I had he told me that, 'At the time of your death all the items touching you are transfered here as well' and that how it was. It reminded me of how helpless I was in that situation, which I of the belladonna family can't accept!
After avoiding the main guard of the prison we finally found the exist.
A big door embedded with black skulls and dark jewelry stood in front of us.
Alex slowly opened it with his hands revealing big grassy lands.
“Let's go” he said wirh a huge grin.
And to that, I found myself smiling.
And it made me realize.
'I can't remember the last time I smiled, when I was alive'
