Where am I? I looked around to see what appeared to be a lush garden with tons of flowers and running water into a little pond. The sky overhead was a beautiful shade of blue.

Last thing I remember was the ceiling collapsing and I was holding... Lily

I looked down but didn't see any wounds over my body but noticed my hair was completely undone now dropping all the way to my thighs and I was wearing a simple white dress. It was practically a night gown but it was serviceable at preserving modesty

Am I in the afterlife perhaps? I suppose I did die after all... I just hope Lily will be ok.

"GREETINGS PRINCESS OF TIME AND SPACE!" A booming voice spoke

"Waaaah." I freaked out and fell backwards. When I opened my eyes I was greeted with the sight of a creature only mentioned in storybooks.

A dragon had appeared before me or perhaps I should say I was in the presence of a dragon. Not some chimeric recreation the former King of Gehna used during the war but a true dragon. And a holy one no less.

I quickly regained my composure and prostrated myself before the dragon.

"Oh great and holy dragon why have you come?" I asked

"I AM NOT THE VISITOR OF THIS GARDEN DEAR CHILD RATHER THAT WOULD BE YOU!" The dragon spoke in a gentle tone but it's presence was still quite overwhelming.

I dared to raise my head to meet the dragons gaze.

"Then if I may ask. Where is here great dragon?" I questioned

I suppose it may have been heaven but something told me that wasn't the case.

"SIMPLY A SPACE CREATED SO THAT WE COULD SPEAK. I AM SIMPLY ACTING AS A MOUTHPIECE FOR THE LORD." He explained

"By the lord do you perhaps mean the same god that brought Caius to this world?" I asked. I remembered my husband being a warrior from a foreign world though he didn't like to talk about it very much. He was the summoned hero that would save the Lux empire.

"THE VERY SAME. A MAJOR EVENT SHALL FACE THIS WORLD IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE. YOUR HUSBAND IS THE FIRST SELECTED AND YOUR DAUGHTER THE FIFTH. THEY WILL PLAY IMPORTANT ROLES IN GUIDING THE FUTURE OF THIS WORLD." The dragon informed me

So they were saddled with a major destiny... I suppose they wouldn't be granted a peaceful life after all.

and my role in this story had come to an end.

"I see... ummm Holy dragon could I please make a request to both you and god?" Regret stung in my voice I knew my time was over when I saw Lilly last but I didn't want her final memory of me to be such a sad one.
