His eyes opened with a small shutter. He had no recollection of closing them.
"""Were they closed the whole time?"""
he wondered still straining to open his eyes. He used every inch of power, every muscle in his body to do it, but with all his might he managed to one eye.
Through his single eye he saw a ray of light streaming across his face. He looked onward to see a woman standing over him, her hand glowing with a green aura.
- be still
she looked at him with eyes mirroring that same green aura. He had wondered why she said this but then he realised his crawling through darkness was merely him sliding across an altar towards her.
He surveyed the room with the energy he had remaining, the woman still looking worriedly at him.
- w..where am I?
This was his limit he could not speak, he could not move. She looked at him moving her lips yet he heard no words. Suddenly his vision blurred and his head dropped back.
All that he could see was an emblem on, what he could only assume was the ceiling, of a dragon circling a crescent moon as he blacked out again into nothingness.
