Wei Wuxian woke up with a refreshed perky mood in a fine serene morning. Well, it is always quiet and tranquil in this realm, as if not even a furthered soul inhabited this place. Of course, this is a dormant realm now, chances of spirits to be dwell and settle here is lean.

He found himself in the same room where he discovered himself to be residing in for the first time he opened his eyes after being brought to this realm. He was feeling felt quite energetic and sprightly after the peaceful long unimpeded slumber.

With a stretching in his arms and legs, and a round of pilates, he decided to explore this apparently extravagant place. It seemed like it is a huge palace of an oofy and prosperous king. But, judging from the exceptional quietude, it could be assumed that no maids or servants works here. The palace is still well maintained though; that's what he assumes.

He got out of bed and walked past the beautifully crafted huge intricate deigned door of the room. His heart was beating with a tune of subtle avidity, as a zealous fervour to explore this place sent a spark of thrill across his newly awakened soul.

He was stunned.

Saying the place just a mere palace would be considered as a wrong choice of word, for it is a heavenly palace. The florid embellishments, the rococo furnitures, the extravagantly spaciousness....the place looked no inferior than a baroque palace.

His room was on the 2nd floor. He walked down the stairs while looking around the palace with awe. The lavish decorations in no way were sculptured by chinese designers. These were more of a Mughal era inspired intricate and gorgeous design patterns, carved perfectly. The delicate embellishments added a tint of ornate sophistication from top to bottom of this enchanting manor.

He was so engrossed in savouring the beauty of the palace that out of unconsciousness, he missed a step, and his slender frame lost balance

He was so engrossed in savouring the beauty of the palace that out of unconsciousness, he missed a step, and his slender frame lost balance. Just when he was about to roll along the stairs, a strong hand gripped around his waist, preventing him from meeting the wrath of the flight of stairs and vehement reaction of the ground.

Wei Wuxian turned around and looked at the same man who had put him into an ocean deep slumber.

"Oh so you are here. I thought you went to bring alcohol for me."

"......"

"How are you feeling? " The man asked calmly, yet with a concern laden face.

"Nice...I guess..." He is feeling really good. But why are they concerned over his health? What's wrong?

" Hmm" The man responded.

"Okay. Enough of the scrap. Now tell me who are you and what am I doing here? Ohh wait... You have to continue with your story. "

" Hmm. Come with me. " Saying this, the man started walking down the stairs. Wei Wuxian followed the man, springing after him.

They reached a huge glitzing room which was adorned by finely carved golden-border designed mirrors, and golden crystal wall scon lights were decorating the white walls. The room was dazzling golden and the contrast between golden and white added an elegant sophisticated beauty.
