DREAMS.

The subconscious telling us what we want in the world. That's how a psychologist would interpret dreams. They show what people truly desire in the world. That wasn't the case with this dream.

Emilia had tried to fall asleep out of sheer boredom. Elijah had been sent out and she had absolutely nothing to do. It reminded her of when she had been stuck at the witch house. During her time at the witch house, she'd sleep to pass the time and preserve whatever strength she could. Sometimes it would work, otherwise times it wouldn't, leaving her more frustrated and bored.

This time it did work though. Emilia didn't even bother to question if people could fall asleep on the other side or not.

She didn't exactly know how the dream started, no one ever does, but she remembered at some point seeing a woman. "Hello Emilia. Great to meet you."

"Am I supposed to know who you are?"

"Qetsiyah."

Emilia interrupted her. "Silas's girlfriend?"

Qetsiyah interrupted her. "Ex." She held out her hand showing a ring. "Currently engaged. You can call me Tessa."

Emilia looks down at the ring impressed. "Damn that's nice."

Tessa walks around Emilia observing her. "Sorry, you have to be stuck with my ex. How has he been treating you?"

"What?"

"You don't have to tell me I can guess. You probably know this but Silas is trying to pull you into the real world."

"Is that supposed to be bad?"

"Yes. Resurrection isn't that simple. He can't just pull you there like that. No power could really allow someone to come back via pulling. If he does that your life will become a hell of a lot worse. You'd be permanently in-between and if the anchor dies or if he's able to figure it out, you become the anchor. We don't want you dealing with that."

"So what am I supposed to do about that? And who's we?"

"Two ways you can go back. First, raise Silas, he takes the cure, finds the anchor, and lets you pass through, but once he figures out who the anchor is he may not be too keen. That would be problematic considering the amount of power he has. The other option is also complex. It will require heavy sacrifice from you."

"Do I even need to go back? I mean there's no point."

Tessa avoids answering that question and keeps speaking. "No matter which option we end up taking I have to show you a few things."

"Why should I believe either of you? Neither of you has done anything particularly trustworthy for me. I've heard of peace, I'll just look for that."

"You can't!"

"Why can't I?"

"Are you that suicidal? Just a while ago you killed someone to survive. How have you changed so much?"
