Cian opened his eyes, or at least he tried to open them. A bright light immediately greeted him as he opened his eyes, which almost blinded him.
"Arg!"
Cian released an unpleasant groan and was momentarily dazed. Only after a few seconds was he able to crack his eyes open.
Everything was bathed in an orange hue, and he saw nothing but halos of light in his vision.
"Am I… dead?"
Cian couldn't help but ask under his breath. However, his vision cleared up enough for him to see the ceiling above him. He realized he was lying on a bed.
He was obviously in a room and not dead, but whose room?
Cian glanced around the room; eyes squinted as he was still seeing faint halos of light. But he was able to see that he was in quite a spacious bedroom, though it was rather plain and lacked any decorations.
It was as if the room was hardly in use.
