Aether's POV
… It felt heavy.
Something pressed against my chest, crushing and suffocating... so painful!
Why was I feeling this?
W-Where was I?
I... I could not feel a single thing properly.
My body, my eyelids... even my fingertips felt distant, as though they belonged to someone else.
Everything seemed unbearably heavy and...
Pain?
Why was I in pain?
What had been taken from me?
I... I don't get it... What these pains were...
BO….!
"AARR…."
"RU…."
Did I… hear something?
"SOME…"
"ARH…"
Why did those voices hurt?
Why did each feel pain and loss?
Why?
"Arh.."
A weak groan escaped my lips.
I felt them part, dry and trembling, they were still there... though I still could not open my eyes or command my body to move. My limbs refused to respond, as though I had been nailed into place.
I... I did not understand where the voices were coming from.
I... I did not understand... where I was.
I... I did not understand why the pain kept spreading.
