"Welcome to the afterlife, Daisy." That sentence was the last thing I heard from him. I couldn't say anything to all the info he had just told me. When he had finished, I just stared blankly at him. I didn't try to move, nor ask something back to him. He obviously saw my distress, and walked to a different room. When he left, I felt a heavy feeling inside of me.

It has been a few days since the incident. I didn't talk anymore, I didn't dare to. Marius seemed to have expected this reaction, and just went on as normal. He always looked over me, when tears seemed to fall down my cheeks. He would call me 'Daisy' now, as if that was my actual name. I don't know if it is, but if it was, how'd he find out? How'd he know so much about me? I wanted to ask him a billion more questions, but like I said, I didn't dare to talk anymore. I had many different feelings inside of me, it makes me feel almost human.

One day, he came up to me with a serious expression, totally different from his normal personality. "Hey, I know you can't talk anymore due to the shock. But, I need to ask you something important." He held my gaze again, and a feeling developed inside of me I'd never felt before.

"...What Is It?..." I whispered in response. He held a small smile to my response.

"Do you remember that book in the forest? The one I caught you reading?" He tilted his head. I nodded. Of course I remember that thing, kinda hard not to. "I went out to try and find it, the exact place I found you. But, it's like it has disappeared. I'm not sure if someone took it, or a magical spell has been casted on it." He looked out the window next to me, looking at the sky.

"Magical spell?..." I looked at him questionably. I knew there was magic, but I didn't know a lot about the different kinds of magic.

"Yeah, although magical spells from The Forbidden Garden have been banned. So i'm not really sure about it, unless you tell me what you read inside of it." He inched closer, with a gleam in his eyes. That weird feeling inside of me grew. I nodded at him, and sat up, opened my mouth, and began explaining everything I remember from the book. Everytime my mouth opened, I felt a cold breeze come out of it. As if, a spell inside of me was being washed away.
