"How does it feel to be dead?" Nyx asked.
Akasan crossed his arms. "Weird. I couldn't feel anything for a while, but I slowly became conscious."
A new flat crystal came out of the ground. Nyx pointed to it. "Here, sit down. We have nothing but time after all."
Akasan walked over to it and sat. "You look so different."
"Do I? Hm. Interesting."
"Did you want to talk about something?"
Nyx turned her head. "You said back then that you were wondering what I experienced that made me into the woman I once was. I plan on telling you."
Akasan nodded. "Okay. I'm listening."
