Kagami's POV

When our protagonist opened his eyes he was, needless to say, confused.

He wasn't confused about where he was or why he felt so loose and scattered. No, Kagami was confused about why everything was so vague. He wondered why, when he opened his eyes, that the light hitting him didn't almost blind him. Not the sharpest, our Kagami. The reason why he wasn't blinded was simply because there was no light. Everything was slightly blurred as if one had just awoken from a long night's sleep. The air was murky and slightly grey. Whispers seemed to pass over his head, enter his ears and encompass his mind. His body felt suspended as if minute strings held it up.

Kagami was, in short, in the Middle Realm.

He was not Dead.

He was A Ghostly Entity.

He was not Living.

He was between Life and Death.

And you better believe me when I say this:

There is no way back. 

But. Kagami doesn't know this. He still thinks that he is Alive in a hospital bed, safely sedated after his shoulder operation. 

He doesn't know that he is no longer Alive, that he stopped breathing on the operational table. That he stopped Living yesterday. 

 Kagami wondered why his thoughts were so clear. Isn't it said that your thoughts seem to run like honey when you're heavily sedated?

He tried to stand..... And achieved this small goal. But he wasn't standing still, Kagami's body seemed to sift around with the vaporous air.

And he finally asked himself:

Where the hell am I??
