She woke up feeling the light of the sun touching her face, but she didn't feel like getting out of bed. It felt just too comfortable! She snuggle into the cover but a feeling of discomfort assaulted her as she felt something dry and brittle scrape over her skin.
Suddenly she remembered everything that happened until now. The mist. The despair. Her eyes shot open and she sat up with a start but instead of the ever present mist she found herself in an unfamiliar place.
She was laying in a large Canopy bed with White silky curtains blocking the view of the outside.
She realized that the uncomfortable feeling originated from the weird dirty bandages that covered her body from head to toe...or at least from chest to toe.
She removed them from herself before realizing what a mess she made, but then she realizes an even bigger problem. She didn't have any clothes!
Huh...funny how wearing clothes suddenly became important when she wasn't in that acursed mist.
Her body shivered thinking about that gloomy place. She really hoped to never return back there but who knew...maybe she was still there, but she finally cracked?
She tried not to think about it and instead focus on her situation.
She wrapped herself in the blanket that she was originally covered with and pulled apart the curtains, revealing a spacious yet cozy room that she never saw before.
It had white limestone walls and a large balcony that let in sunlight that illuminated the entire room. There was a cozy furniture that she didn't recognize but she assumed that it was used to sit on it and there was also a number of pouffes and a large fluffy carpet on the floor.
In one part of the room she saw a bathtub with steam raising from the surface of the water. It was clearly hot and ready for bath. Beside the bathtub was a table with an assortment of different clothes and on the other side was another table with a number of cleaning utensils.
She took in the sight of the room and tried to calm down her nerves. How did she got here? Who brought her here? Who prepared all this?
Her eyes fell on one of the pouffes and she realized that there was a cat lying on it and looking at her with curiosity.
It was the first animal that she saw in such a long time. And it was a cat!
She always loved cats. Not just because of her connection to their race but because of how lovable yet fierce they can be. Just like her... They are amazing companions who can warm your heart, but they are also fierce and nimble warriors when the need arises.
She walked over to the cat and inside rejoiced that it didn't shy away from her. She felt it pur under her finger as she caressed its head. Her raging emotions temporarily calmed down.
≈Hello there little one...≈ She said, not even realizing that those were her first proper words in many years. A small tear trailed down her cheek as she said those words.
She finally finished her administration and turned back to the bathtub. 'Might as well use it since I'm here. Gods know how dirty I am.' She thought.
The water was the perfect temperature and she was surprised that it didn't cool down yet.
As she was submerging herself in the water she felt extremely relaxed. 'How long was she in That Mist? Why was she there? Is all this just A dream or am I hallucinating? If this place is just a hallucination then i hope it doesn't end. Anything is better than that acursed place...'
She didn't know how long was she just lying there in this hot water, trying to stop the dark thoughts from filling her head but she didn't realize when the cat left from its previous spot and left the room.
She also didn't realize that when it passed over her bed, the remains of the bandages got perfectly cleaned up nor did she saw how did the cat managed to do so.

Konrad was currently sitting in his study, working on digitalizing the magic Formations they found in the underground chamber. He had a bit of a problem with cataloguing different symbols though as it was a completely new magical language based on the Egyptian hieroglyphs.
Suddenly, the door opened and a fuzzy cat entered the room. It was of course Octavia.
*Daddy. She finally woke up.* Said Octavia, making Konrad turn to his familiar.
"Ahh. That's great. How is she?' He inquired smiling towards the cat shaped slime.
*She appears confused and judging by her expressions and occasional tears also traumatized. But she seems to be a good person. She gave me a very nice scratch and said something in an unfamiliar language.* Explained Octavia.
"That's good to hear. Go and keep her company for now. Oh and take this basket of fruits. I'm sure she's going to be hungry." He said before taking out a basket of multiple different fruits out of his inventory.
"When she's ready, take her to me or come for me instead, depending on how the situation unfolds." He gave her a head pat and went back to work.
Octavia returned to the room and watched as The girl tried to figure out how to use the shampoo and conditioner that Konrad prepared for her with the funny pictures on the bottles.

She wasn't used to stuff like this but she had to admit that it was much better that the fragrant oils and the ash and clay soap that she used in the past. The first bottle was marked with pictograms that led her to understand that it was used for the entire body and hair. There was also a quiet obvious warning of not puting in the eye which she would have done regardless but she still appreciated the gesture of whoever prepared all this. Everything was prepared so that she could understand and manage herself.
She understood that she must have been found in those weird dirty bandages and that person respected her privacy so he didn't remove them.
After she cleaned up the first liquid soap she used the second bottle. This one clearly indicated to use it on the hair and two lines indicated that it was the second bottle.
The liquid was surprisingly very slippery. She was really curious what was it's purpose but She soon found out when she finally washed it off...
Her hair became so smooth and silky! She was really amazed with this as it was better than the most expensive fragrant oil she ever used.
As she was admiring her hair, her gaze went back to the cat which now sat in the middle of the carpet, but there was also a basket laying there. Did she miss it? Probably. She wouldn't be surprised with her emotions going so wild.
The basket seemed to contain some fruits. The girl suddenly felt her belly rumble. When was the last time she ate something? She shuddered again.
She quickly dried herself with a towel and went for the clothes. but there was a slight problem... She didn't recognize any of those clothes. They were not what she was used to... Most of them were already in shapes of the body part that they were supposed to cover unlike what people wore where she came from.
It took her a few minutes to find something that felt somehow alright, for her clothing outside of combat, among the multiple colorful clothes.
It was a simple long white dress with thin shoulder stripes and a pretty purple string wrapped into a ribbon at her bottom chest area.//pic in here//
She was rather satisfied with her choice and didn't mind the lack of accessories.
She quickly walked towards the basket, feeling the hunger in her stomach. She couldn't wait to finally taste something after synch a long time.
She didn't recognize most of the fruits but she did found one of her favourites. It was a fig! She quickly bit into it and enjoyed the tasty fragrance that she almost forgot about. Unfortunately that thought made her remember why she forgot the taste. The Mist...The darkness...The loneliness...the senselessness. Her body shuddered and her heart started to beat faster. Her breath quickened and she was looking into space with a terrified expression.
Thankfully the cat suddenly appeared and started to purr while pushing it's head onto her leg as if asking for a scratch.
The girl felt the cat and her mind quickly calmed down. her beating heart returned to normal and she felt thankful.
She picked the cat with her free hand and walked back to the bed, before placing it on her lap. She proceeded with scratching Its fuzzy belly and her body completely relaxed. She used her other hand to run age in the basket that she placed beside her and tasted different fruits one after the other. She especially liked the round red fruit and the long yellow one, but she needed a second to realize that the skin in the second one wasn't edible and that it was very easy to pil off.
≈What should I do now? Should I go and look for someone or stay here...≈ She mumbled to herself.
Suddenly the cat perked up and jumped from her lap, before walking towards the door. Then it looked back at her and back onto the door as if saying 'Hooman open the door'.
Not having anything better to do, she followed after the cat and tried to open the door which surprisingly weren't locked at all. This meant that whoever brought her here wasn't keeping her prisoner. She felt slightly better knowing that...
The cat went through the door into a large corridor and clearly indicated with his head for her to follow it. She decided to listen to the cat and followed behind it while looking at her surroundings with great curiosity...
