When Harker woke up, he was laying in a hospital bed with Artea by his side.
"How….. How long have I been out?" He croaked.
"Not too long." Artea said. "Not even for a whole day. The doctors said it was a fast recovery considering what you experienced."
Harker nodded, and remembered what happened before he fell into a coma. Again.
He was honestly quite tired of losing consciousness, but those usually gave him the dreams that reveal the hidden truth.
"Look, Artea…. What you saw was—"
Artea shook her head. "No need. Roland already told me everything."
Harker wasn't surprised. "Right."
Cat's outta the bag now, so there's no reason to pretend in front of Artea Holmwood. Though he did feel a little guilty for breaking his promise about maintaining her innocence.
"Your father didn't want you to be involved in these things. It's really beyond the dangers you have known." Harker said.
