"why isn't she awake yet.." xiao mumbled as he paced reluctantly around the inn.

"i think it is best to call out cloud retainer now, xiao." madam ping mouthed as they checked (first name)'s forehead.

"she's in the middle of her own abyss.." she followed,

"..well if i have to take her to the sky, then i will."

"take my seal." the elder handed xiao a golden tab.

"this goes directly to cloud retainer's abode."

"..thank you."

"what are you doing here, alatus?" an elegant white entity asked.

"i need your help," xiao mouthed as he stared at the mortal he was carrying, "the mortal i was bounded with."

"can't wake up.."

"i remember.." they said.

"your contractee, i see." they followed, "put her down."

xiao nodded as he gently put down (first name) down the alley of clouds in her abode.

soft.

unreal.

(first name)'s expression softens yet still laid unconscious.

"my, shes lost in her own memories."

"what do you mean..?" xiao asked while following,

"i couldn't even see through her memories."

"it was likely you wouldn't see through, a trapped soul within her own mind needs to escape on her own."

"you need to find a way to wake her up."

"and how will i do that?" xiao bluntly asked.

"you resonate to wake her up."

"i've decided already.. circe.. you can't change my mind."

"don't you understand.. i'd give anything for yue.."

"..i" he cut her off as his eyes of gold looked away.

"it was worth the try.." circe said while he put his hand away from (first name).

"why do you desperately want me to live?" (first name) asked as a few tears escaped from her eyes.

"you're making this difficult for me.." she whimpered.

"i don't want yue nor you to get hurt.. my decisions may be rash,"

"but demons can't break contracts.." (first name explained as she tried to hold circe's hand.

"so a fraction of your decision.. was because of me?" circe asked in disbelief as he turned away from (first name).

"i dont want a happy ending!" he suddenly yelled out frustrated.

"i want it for you!"

"i can't cure whatever your brother had."

"so i don't know how the hell i could make things better when it was brought to you!"

"if it wasn't for that damned curse.." circe kept yelling and yelling,

"..what do you mean?" (first name) tugged his arm,"what curse?"

circe faced (first name) and put both of his hands on both of her arms.

"your brother was never sick." he said in a gloomy expression.

"what?" (first name) said with a very puzzled expression.

"he was cursed."

"and demons cant lift other demons curses.."

"how could he get curse, that's impossible!" (first name) yelled out.

"i've never called out a demon asides from you! and he was sick ever since he was a kid!"

"..the reason i was away earlier.. was because i asked around about you.." circe mouthed with hesitation.

"i asked the demons i knew.."

"and.." his golden eyes winced away as he didn't want to face (first name). he loosens his grip towards her and slowly hangs his head down.

"just say it!"

"your father.."

"killed an adeptus.."

"circe.." (first name)'s expression kept puzzling,

"yue and i have never met our father."

"(first name), you need to think harder. you need to remember."
