Night of Cylus 2nd of the 718th Arc
Screams. Where were they coming from? She couldn't move, it was dark. Fear rising in her throat as. She tried to move, tried to pull or push, but this feeling of sinking just got worse. A voice that she thought she'd heard long ago came to her. "You are mine... the skies are forbidden to you."
Her eyes shot open, but she was blinded by light, not blackness. She was not in the dark of her prison. The desk drawer. No.. this place was.. different. Plants that were glowing were all around here. But why couldn't she move? She looked around and watched in horror as a lizard tore off her left arm. She screamed, that's when she realized, the screams she'd been hearing were hers.
She tried to get up, looking around, but just moving a bit felt like it took every bit of effort she had in her. She blinked and looked around. This place, she'd never seen this place before. Something about this place felt wrong. She squinted and tried to call out, but all that come past her lips was yet another scream of pain.
She looked down and part of her left foot was missing. How was it that she lost that? She couldn't remember she felt dizzy for a moment and then suddenly the ground beneath her shattered and disappeared. She flailed, trying to catch something, anything but nothing was there that she could grab. She fell into darkness once more. Falling and falling, further and further until she landed on top of something, or... someone. She bounced off their head, onto their shoulder, and with her right arm she grabbed at their clothing.
Tears stained here eyes as she panted for breath. The tiny being had unknowingly fallen into someone else's dream, she looked around to try and figure out where she was but she didn't know. She didn't understand what was going on. She looked up to the man before her. "I'm.. sorry.. I... don't know where.. I am.. or where I came from..." she looked around. "I.. I'm hurt.. I'm not sure how.. Could you... help?" She looked scared, and confused as she tried to comprehend what was around her.
