Dying In The Darkness [ElesisxAdd]

>Amber Eyes to Cry<

Elesis P.O.V
My body feels heavy, the feeling is strangely familiar. I can feel the warmth of sunlight on my face. I squint my eyes open. The ceiling above me is a copper wood color. I sit up and look at my new surroundings, golden yellow in the morning light. I'm in a small room with walls of wood. The great set of windows next to my neatly made bed are wide open. Little insects fly inside and out. the cries of bird's mating calls and the sounds of the forest drift through the window echoing in the house.
"Oh you're awake, How are you feeling?" a soft but clear male voice says.
I look to the doorway of the room. A young man is standing there, as he walks over to me i notice his eyes are shade of electric purple, almost pink. They hypnotize me for a second.
His hair is white, a rare trait to have. There's also a slight scar across his left eye.
He sits down in the chair placed next to the bed. I feel like I've seen him before somewhere, but I can't put my finger on it.
"So...?" he says with a slight laugh
"Oh right, fine, I suppose but I am hungry." I reply with a bit of embarrassment. I was so absorbed by him I forgot about his question.
" That's to be expected You have been asleep for two weeks" He says.
"Really? What happened to me...?" I try to swallow the fear in my voice. This is strange. My mind is blank. I know how to function but I don't remember how i got here, where I was a month ago. Any people or names, I know things about myself. Elesis was the name i was given, and I'm 19, everything else to hazy to have any real meaning.
"Don't worry, I'll explain everything, but first let's eat."
"Wait, who are you? what's your name?" I ask
"Call me Add, and you are?"
"I'm...Elesis"
" You should get dressed, Elesis." Add says, drawing out my name as tho it's something to be careful with. He stands and gestures to a white dress laid out in front of me. That's when I realized I'm one just in my underwear and covered in blood soaked bandages. I stare down at myself in shock.
"God, what happened to me...?" I whisper, half to myself half to him.
"I said I'd tell you, but get dressed..." Add says from the doorway, turned away. I pull on the white dress. It's strange I feel no pain as I move. could i have been completely healed in two weeks? Is that possible? Maybe with some kind of healing magic?
Who is this Add anyway, He wouldn't have anything to gain by lying to me, at least I hope not.
I want to trust him.
i assume he did save me after all.
I don't sense he's a bad person.
I join Add at the doorway. I notice he's quite taller than me, at least 5 inches.
Add leads me down the hall. The kitchen is filled with the same golden light as the bedroom. The smell of fried eggs and sausage waft through the air. Add motions to the table, already set with food waiting. I sit down and dig right in. Its full of flavor and I would say it's the best food I've ever eaten but I have nothing to compare it to, with my memory being a blank.

When I've cleared my plate, I look at him inquisitively, clearing my throat. He sees the seriousness in my eyes.
"So do explain how I got here and why I can't remember anything."
Add swallows his last sip of tea.
"Very well, two weeks ago I found you unconscious in a far away place, the land of Feita. you were a knight, you see this kingdom has been at war with demons and spirits for many years. you were a knight in a party of very skilled warriors, The Red Knights. tho you and your men were strong you were ambushed. your party and camp was wiped out by the demons. I was in the area at the time and saw the smoke from the destruction and I came as quickly as I could, but I was too late. I tried finding anyone who was still alive, I almost gave up, but then I found you. you were practically dead but you hung on to life. I had a few healing elixirs with me at the time and I was able to carry you to a town not to far from the knights camp. I found more help there. we rested there a week and then I brought you here. as for your dementia I can imagine it was quite traumatic so I think your mind has perhaps locked away those memories so as to not harm the body. " Add finishes his story and thoughts, he looks up to me keen on seeing my reaction.
I sit there in shock, me a knight?
I think back. I really think back, it's still fuzzy but I can see it. I can see the knights, I can see glimmers of us fighting, winning, losing, dying... I can see the blood but there's no way i'm going to remember everything. No faces, no names, no details, just a big red blur.
My head starts throbbing and I feel tears running down my cheeks even tho I don't really feel sad.
I don't really feel anything.
