Elyse woke up from her strange dream with tears streaming down her eyes. Strangely enough, a single strand of her hair turned silver and her eyes glow in golden yellow — still crying while her heart is in pain from remembering her dream.
"Elyse?" Arbor approached her, wiping her tears off from her face and she hugged him.
"Did you have a bad dream?" Arbor asks and Elyse shakes off her head, she couldn't speak and could only cry in his arms.
There are no exact words coming from Elyse's mouth. She's as if she's been swallowed by a pang of great guilt and pain when she saw Sylvia getting killed in front of her — who was Aniya in that dream she possessed?
Until now, Elyse can still clearly see blood in her hands and hear the sound of cries Tina makes. Her necklace keeps on shining on her neck, still hugging Arbor to find comfort in his arms.
Meanwhile, Chad was there, watching them as Arbor hugged Elyse and how Elyse clings to Arbor's arms very well. He felt extreme jealousy at the sight of it so he decided to walk away from them and fetch some water.
Hours later, Elyse stopped crying and has now calmed down. Eli gives her a cup of water to drink and Elyse drinks a little bit of it.
"Feeling better?" Arbor asks and she nodded her head.
"Elyse." Raymond approaches her. "It's good that you're finally awake." He said and behind him was Arrow approaching them.
"Elyse! We found traces of monsters there, also I know where the orb is." Arrow said handing her a map of a castle.
"This is a castle," Elyse said and Arrow nodded her head.
"While you were asleep, Raymond and I decided to scan the area. Weird thing is, a ruined castle appeared which has never appeared in the past few years that I and the others traveled in this dimension," Elyse's eyes looked at Arrow, confused.
"Past... years? Have you all been entering this dimension for the past years?" Arrow nodded her head.
"To be precise, this world appeared right after the old Master went missing and the new Master usurped the throne. This world went into turmoil hearing the old master go missing and then suddenly, a new master rise and ruled the world. It was completely chaotic back then; you must've not known since you lived far away from the Capital."
Elyse's eyes furrowed to Chad's interruption.
"How did you know I am a country bumpkin?"
Chad felt flustered and quickly erased his statement.
"Oh! I mean I didn't mean it in a bad way. I mean... I'm a Messenger of Alphas so?" Elyse froze and she nodded her head.
Right, both Chad and Aniya are messengers and informants to the Alphas. So basically, the two know what's going on inside or outside. Both Chad and Aniya are truly dangerous on the past glorious days of Alphas. Since the two of them know the truth and lie beneath the beautiful and luxurious golden gates of the world.
