I felt weird, to say the least.
As I resurfaced from the gate of death, I felt nothing but everything at the same time. The heat of the room, and the frigidity in the air as well.
It was strange... But that was not what was on my mind.
I could breathe...
The feeling of air entering my lungs and leaving was exhilarating. The hot metal burning my skin was now a blessing... I could finally feel.
But that was not the limit of what I could feel... No... That was only the tip of the iceberg.
These feelings... These sensations were not on the outside but inside... I could feel a 'heat' within me.
But at the same time I could feel coldness. I could feel that there was no mana left in my body, that was the source of this bitter cold...
But then! That was also what allowed me to feel the heat within me.
