CLEOBELLE / SINCLAIR
When I opened my eyes, I was welcomed by a place with the most vibrant azure skies and crystal clear lake that mirrors it.
At the center is a huge tree surrounded by clouds and being protected by a clear dome. Around the whole place are mysterious tiny entities flying around and giggling.
At the center of the paradise, I can see a tall figure of a man angrily facing a woman.
"If you leave this place, I'll consider you dead," a man's deep voice, coldly echoed through the whole place.
"You can never set your foot back here! Don't provoke me!" he added.
Despite his threats, the woman continued walking away, not even sparing the man a glance.
She just walked away until she was out of sight; seems to have already decided where to go and what fate she'll face ahead. . .

Strangely, when I woke up, I was sitting under a tree. The tree that I planted on Vespera's grave.
"What?" I uttered.
Just awhile ago, I was in Glacialis?
Matapos ng hunting competition ay agad kaming umuwi. Pinauna ako ni Aslan sapagkat kailangan niyang puksain ang lahat ng mga halimaw.
Sumama ang pakiramdam ko magmula nang makatagpo namin ang misteryosong lalaking iyon, kaya naman ay itinulog ko na lamang pag-uwi.
Wala akong naaalalang nagpunta ako rito at lalong wala akong balak na bisitahin ang libingan ng aking ina.
Ipinikit ko ang mga mata saka tinawag ang mga spirit summons ko, ngunit wala ni isa sa kanila ang dumating.
Tila ba ay hindi nila ako naririnig. . .
'Elsa! Anna! Olaf! Kristoff!' I called their names.
Napangiwi pa ako doon. Bakit ba kasi sa dami ng pangalan ay iyan ang napili ko?
Am I that childish in my first life? Well nevermind that. I can't seem to summon any of them, nor can I use my power.
"What the hell is happening?" I asked.
Suddenly, a thick fog surrounded the place.
I felt chills as the ice started crawling to the ground.
Sinundan iyon ng aking mga mata at mula sa kailaliman ng gubat ay unti unting lumabas ang isang napaka pamilyar na bulto.
Isang babaeng, kailanman ay hindi ko malilimutan ang mukha.
"Vespera. . . " I called her name.
"It's been awhile since you visited me child," she uttered.
I just looked at her coldly. "I didn't really intended to."
"Are you the one who called me here?" I asked.
This never happened on my previous lives. Makes me wonder if this is connected to what the Saintess told me back then.
She said this life might be my last chance to get out of this book.
"I've been watching you for a long time. . . Since your first life perhaps?" she chuckled.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
