"The Curse Of Eternal Sleep!"
"What Curse is that?" Camelia asked in awe.
"Well I don't know much my lady but according to what I heard, the people in the village have been falling asleep without waking up!"
"Maybe it's just Them being in a comma, Not a c-curse!" Sarah said still a little frightened.
"Well you may be right but the Doctor had checked on them and they are absolutely fine, it's like they are Trapped in their dream. They are breathing and sleeping but they aren't just waking up and it has been spreading, once it turns midnight another bunch if people will sleep without wake!"
"The only way for them to escape the Curse is by not sleeping until day break but it isn't easy especially for the young children And so the Emperor is worried that it might spread to other village's in the west!"
Gwen stated as Camelia just stared at thin air with a straight face.
Whatever was happening totally wasn't something normal.
"You may leave now!" Shs said as she then passed another gold coin to Gwen, "This matter dies here got it, no one should know that you met me today understood?"
"Yes, yes my lady, I'll take my leave now!" Gwen Said happily as she took the gold coin and left.
If anyone were to find out that Camelia had asked about information concerning the sudden incident, rumors nay start to spread and it won't be good.
After all Camelia was just a lady, what business did she have with the royal affairs of the kingdom.
With Gwen gone, Camelia then sighed as she relaxed back on her chair.
"I'm tired, You two should prepare dinner, I shall rest afterwards!" Camelia said as she stood up and left.

After dinner, Camelia then took her bathes and got ready to sleep for the night.
It was still around six in the evening and back in Myconid it was already as dark as night but here in Kalis, it was all still bright.
And so she had to wait until dark before she left to meet Lora.
If she were to leave now, Mary and Sarah might pop in to deliver some news or the guards might see her when in patrol and it won't be good for her.
She had to leave when everyone was sleep go be safe.
Sighing, she decided to take a quick nap and after that, she would get ready to leave.

Camelia found herself walking through a mysterious village in the dead of night. The thick fog shrouded everything, making it difficult for her to see clearly. Each step she took echoed in the eerily quiet streets, heightening her senses and the feeling of isolation.
As she ventured further, she stumbled upon a massive, old house. Its presence stood out amidst the fog-drenched landscape.
With a mix of curiosity and trepidation, she cautiously entered the creaking doors. Inside, she was met with an astonishing sight.
The floor of the house was littered with people, all fast asleep. They lay motionless, their peaceful faces illuminated by the soft moonlight that filtered through the fog outside.
They seemed to be frozen in a collective slumber, creating an inexplicable sense of unease within Camelia.
As she surveyed the scene, Camelia turned her head and noticed a vibrant burst of yellow flowers tucked away in a corner of the room.
They stood out like beacons of color amidst the monochromatic foggy setting. Yet, despite their beauty, they seemed to carry a strange and unsettling energy.
Suddenly, Camelia's heart raced, and a sense of fear washed over her being. The weight of the dream pressed down on her as she struggled to breathe, desperate to wake up and escape this perplexing and unsettling world.
In a moment of panic, Camelia finally awoke, gasping for air, her heart pounding in her chest. The relief flooded over her as she realized it was merely a dream.
She took a deep breath, exhaling her fear and allowing herself to calm down, grateful that the strange and foggy village was only a fading memory.

As she looked around, she was back in her chambers and it was all dark. Quickly turning on the lamb beside her she sighed in relief.
What dream was that? She thought as she then looked out at window.
She stood up and made her way to the window as she embraced the nice breeze.
She somehow had a memory of being here once, maybe it was a feeling if deja Vu but it felt more real.
Sighing she stared at the garden far ahead. It was beautiful under the warm light of the moon.
Suddenly memory's that was so realistic started flooding into her head causing her to feel slightly dizzy as she staggered slightly.
What the hell was wrong with her? What were those memory's of her coming down the garden and seeing a somewhat familiar beast.
Just then she remembered calling into a familiar name "Logan" and then blacking out.
Widening her eyes in shock Camelia was speechless. She remembered! She remembered all that had occurred last night but how.
What was that Beast and why did Logan appear in front of her when she called out his name and most especially why did she forget about it.
Just thinking about it was giving her immense headache.
No! This wasn't the time for her to be thinking about such things, now she had to focus on escaping and meeting Lora before time runs out.
