"Mila? Mila?"

Mila heard someone calling out to her, she didn't know who it was, but their voice sounded pleasant to listen to. "Who's calling me?" She said with her eyes still shut with no intention of opening them yet.

"How long do you plan to sleep for?" She heard the lady say with a tone that turned a little more serious. "If you don't wake up now, then things will take a turn for the worse." She included after, hoping that Mila would wake up to know what had happened.

Slowly opening her heavy eyelids, Mila saw a very heavenly woman who held a smile that made one feel warmth and safety. 'I feel like I've seen you before.' Mila couldn't exactly recall anything, but she felt as though the woman before her looked too familiar. Her honey-blonde hair and ocean blue eyes had Mila thinking until her head started hurting. 'Why can't I remember?'

"You've just woken up so don't overthink anything during this time." The woman said, smiling at the young lady who tried to recall back a few of her memories. 'Why do you want to try recalling a few things when you are still not in the best state of mind?' Thinking how this young lady does nothing but thinks all the time with no time for herself to relax for anything.

"I thought I was dead," Mila remembered her vision going dark with no recollection of anything else soon after all of that happened. It all just felt like a dream again, but she at least had no nightmares this time which was a little surprising to her. The last thing she remembered was being with ZH, and now she was in a strange place that felt like she was feeling better being able to move around feeling mana all around her. 'Very strange place. Makes me feel very lively and energetic all of a sudden.' She thought, looking around to see the sky then to see what looked to be like a flower bed that she was laying down in. 'Is this a... bed?' Looking to see how the flower bed was rather beautiful to have if one was a carefree woman with no struggles in their life.

"Haha, you sure seem to be over-thinking things along with being fascinated at the same time with everything around you. You're not dead, little one." The woman lightly petted Mila's head to see how things changed with the sleeping youth here. "You're very much alive. Your soul has just finished healing after everything that you've been through in the real world." The woman didn't think that the young lady she was with would be quite unusual in her mind.

"My soul???" Mila didn't understand what was going on at that moment. 'How did I come here? Wasn't I with ZH? Did they get captured???' Feeling nothing, but more and more concern for her people who could be in danger while she was in an unknown place. 'Why am I just laying here while my friends and family could be in danger?' Trying to get up, she was soon stopped by the woman who did not allow her to move around so much.

"Your people are safe. Trust me." The woman figured that Mila would be in fear for her people who stood by her side since the beginning of her rebirth. "Your soul was the last thing that needed to be healed. Once you were hit by that fire arrow, then it almost completely shattered your soul when it wasn't fully healed from the last spell you cast upon yourself." The woman was very accurate which made Mila quite amazed that she knew so much. 'I see that you noticed how much I know about you.' The woman could see how Mila started to feel lost and confused with her since they knew nothing about one another in this situation.

"How do you know so much about me?" First, there was confusion in her mind, but it aroused suspicion for Mila since she never really met this woman before in her entire life. 'Is she perhaps a spy? Maybe, a long-lost acquaintance that I could've come across.' She didn't want to start assuming and putting the woman before her in the wrong place or any wrong ideas. 'Best to not assume so quickly about her.' She knows that making quick decisions would make one misunderstand something or be led astray from something else.
