"What do you mean they were able to escape?!"

"My queen, we did our best, but apparently the civilians stood up against the guards and managed to flee through a hole in the wall."

"Then find them! If they find the other villages and turn them against us we will be screwed!" 

What is that? Someone is talking, but I can't see anything. Why can't I see anything?! Oh right, I had my eyes closed. Now I can see.

Wait.

Where the heck am I?! I looked around. A wide hallway, really high walls and everything is nice and clean. That's definitely not in our village. The loud yelling came from my left, I began to make my way down the hall.

"My queen, please. They could be already gone when our man would arrive at the town. And since our first plan failed, we need to make a new one, we need more time."

"Then make your idiotic plan and wipe these monstrosity's out of existence!! You Are dismissed!"

"Yes my lady, we will not fail you again."

The huge doors at the end of the hall opened, out stepped a man. He was wearing armour and held his helmet under his arm. 

I panicked when I thought he would notice me, but instead he just walk trough me.

Wait what.

I looked back to the man. He just walking away and left through a door. 

Why didn't he see me, and why the heck was he able to just go trough me?! I looked at my hands, where they always so pale and transparent? 

Then it hit me. This is a dream. I must have a fever dream. But why does it feel so real then? Has this something to do with me almost dying? Or am I really dead and stuck as a ghost in my own head? 

No that wouldn't make any sense. Why would I be stuck in a place I never knew?

 I saw a mirror near the doors and walked towards it. I need to know if I'm really me or just, idk, a ghost? 

Blond hair? Check.

Blue eyes? Also check.

And still the same dirty, old clothes. This is definitely me. Except the scars littering over the left half of my body. Where are these from? Are these... from fire? They looked like burn scars. 

I got pulled from my thoughts when I heard the loud bang of doors being opened with force. When I turn my head in the direction of the sound i was able to see an old woman with rich looking robes and jewels littering over her arms and neck. 

She turned her head. Her eyes widening when she looked at me.

Then everything went black. 

"Callan!"

"You're awake!"

A/N: Thank you for reading my story this far!^^ 

And sorry that this chapter is so short, I'll try to make the next ones longer. I planned to do an explanation on the characters for the next part. But the fourth chapter should be out by the next two weeks. I hope that's ok, I don't really have much time with the whole school stuff I'm supposed to do. Really, who thought translating a whole text from Latin is good for students?! 

Anyways, I hope you have a good Day/Night! :)
