Suddenly I was in a world with violet sky, and various auroras everywhere.

'Where am I?' But my voice is gone!

I continue to look around. Then I noticed a huge shadow. A shadow of a creature I can't identify. It said something in an odd language and I somehow understand it.

'Leave! Now! It's not your time child. The world is in great peril. You must return at once!'

'Well I would if I could. But I can't!' I wanted to reply. Then suddenly, the grounds shook so hard, I woke up. Riuna was staring at me.

'Urgh... How long was I out?'

'Just a few seconds. Are you okay?'

A few seconds? It felt like a whole year already in that dream.

'Oh yeah! The wolves! Have they-?'

'Calm down. I put on a minimum barrier for now. Since were under a shade, my power is still in effect... a bit.'

'And this astral form thing? I don't feel any-!! Whoah! Why am I naked!?' yes. When you're wearing nothing and completely nothing; the term for that is naked, a.k.a. birthday suit.

'You're not naked. It just feels like it. Because in your astral form, all the weight attached to your body is removed.'

Well, she got a point. I do feel weightless. Then I just noticed that I was wearing something else than what I was wearing. A light blue layer dress made of satin cloth. And my hair turned from black to slightly brown. Is this what an astral form is?

'Well I don't feel different.'

'I guess the effect takes a while, hardly any human could summon their astral form by will you know.'

'Wait, you mean?'

'Yes, all the creatures in the world have their own different astral forms. It's just that most don't know and or how to use them.'

'Well, now what do I do?'

'Try summoning a weapon or some spells with your Words of Origins, or WO for short.'

'Words of Origins? What's that?'

'It's like your true mother language. Most people have their birth country's language as their WO, but some don't. Don't worry, your WO will come calling to you when you activate your Astral Form for the first time. It should happen anytime now.-'

-pzzt- -pzzt- -crack-

Riuna's barrier is weakening, cracks are all over it. She's also sweating a lot.

'Huff... huff... just... concentrate...huff...huff...'

'Riuna are you okay? You're burning up!'

'Huff... huff...I'm ok... just a side effect.'

Whatever side effect it is, it can't be good. Her face is turning pale by the minute.

Just then the pack of wolves appeared from the distance glaring us with their glowing eyes. Ready to pounce as the barrier falls.
