I opened my eyes and found myself in a sprawling field of soft green grass. The sun was shining brightly overhead, casting long shadows across the ground. The air was warm and crisp, and I could hear the distant sound of wind blowing. But something felt off. I looked around, trying to get my bearings, but there was nothing to see.

No buildings, no trees, no signs of life. Just me, alone in an empty field. I stood up, feeling a strange sense of disorientation. I didn't know how I got here, or where I was. All I knew was that I was alone in a vast, open space, with nothing and no one to guide me. How did I even end up here? I remember I was with Yuuji and some blindfold guy and....

The silence was deafening. The only sound was my own breathing, and even that seemed to echo through the stillness. I took a few steps forward, trying to make sense of it all, but each moment only deepened the solitude. I sat down in the grass, feeling utterly alone. The world around me was vast and empty, and I was just a small speck in the vastness. But for some reason, I felt at peace.

The grass was soft and cool against my skin, and the sun was warm on my face. I felt a sense of simplicity that I couldn't quite name, and for the first time in a long time, I felt content. But as I sat there, a strange notion began to take hold. I knew that I couldn't stay here forever. I had to find a way out, to connect with the world around me. It was a strange idea, and I wasn't sure how to make sense of it, but I knew it was true.

I don't know how long I sat there, but eventually, I got up and started walking. I didn't know where I was going, but I felt a sense of purpose in the act of moving forward, of taking action. I walked for what seemed like hours, until I noticed someone towards the direction I'm heading. As I walked and walked, I noticed a woman sitting alone, drinking tea. Her white hair swayed with the winds as she looked at me gracefully. I just looked back at her not knowing what to say.

Her barely-exposed skin was porcelain-like and pure white, so white that it seemed any semblance of color had been completely bleached from her existence

Her barely-exposed skin was porcelain-like and pure white, so white that it seemed any semblance of color had been completely bleached from her existence. Her black eyes shone with intellect and were the only part of the woman that looked alive. Her long straight hair reached down to her back and was as white as her skin, and it also had a jade green butterfly hairpin. Anyone who saw her would be instantly captivated by her striking beauty but I'm used to this since there's Shion and the others that I have came across before. But if she were an elf, I'd gladly bark for her....Heh.

"My my... We just met a minute ago and yet you kept staring at me with those thirsty eyes. Such a greedy one", she began to talk while she maintained her smile. Feeling embarrassed, I immediately bowed down to her as an apology.

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to"

"Oh it's fine really. Why don't you sit down and let's talk"
