Alex's senses were dulled, but after dark mist covered the place, he felt a hand gently place itself upon his back.
With the little strength he had left, he turned around.
There she was, a goddess very familiar to him.
Long black hair ornamented with stars.
A hazy black dress.
It was Nyx.
However, Alex perceived her true facial features for the very first time.
Her irises and pupils looked like a spiral galaxy and black and strong eyebrows folded into her glabella, forming a frown.
She looked at him and she said, "Rest well, my child."
Suddenly an even darker mist than the one that surrounded them formed around his severed body parts.
When the mist dissipated, newly-formed bones were visible, and with his skeletal system in place, his body could slowly heal.
Alex wasn't, however, in any state to focus on anything other than recovery, as he collapsed and fainted.
When Alex had lost consciousness, the mist that covered the entire battlefield disappeared.
