Blinking a few times, I yanked my gaze free from the amused orange eye that stared back at me from the mirror, turning instead to the worried An sitting in front of me.
"Lady Yichen! Lady Yichen, can you hear me!? Oh please, Lady Yichen!!"
Panting, I blinked a few more times as I reached forwards, placing my hand on her arm as I muttered "I... I-I'm fine... I'm f-fine now..."
She let out a sigh of relief, her fluffy ears twitching as she sank down onto her haunches.
"Oh thank the... hah, that scared me, Lady Yichen! What was that? What happened?"
Licking my dry lips, I swallowed down a small orb of water that I summoned, trying to wet my parched throat.
"I... I d-don't know..."
Shaking my head, I looked down towards Li Yue, who stared back at me in confusion, her blue and orange eyes pure and sparkling in the low light.
Shivering, I looked around the room that I used to inhabit, chilled by the Shimmering Palace's natural cool atmosphere.
