Nathan opened his eyes and was met with the intense stinging of the morning sun on his face. He squinted in the light, temporarily dazzled.
Shutting his eyes again, he then opened them and quickly sat up. By his side, he saw Polly, the Fae-Beast, a white three-tailed fox with some patches of green fur, fast asleep.
On Tuesday, September 17th, 2086, after two days of hibernation, Nathan finally emerged from his slumber.
Linda and Meriel made sure to help Nathan out of the pocket dimension and took care of him until he got back home safely. This morning, Nathan woke up feeling fully rejuvenated.
Nathan gingerly ran his fingers through Polly's fur, causing its two pointy ears to twitch and its eyes to open lazily.
"Master... Have you recovered?" it asked before leaping into his lap.
The fox then contentedly rubbed its head against Nathan's arm, its soft fur eliciting a slight smile from him. He simply kept silent and smiled at the Fae-beast.
