Cara, who had just awakened from a deep slumber, felt weak. Her vision was blurry, making it difficult to make sense of her surroundings. She attempted to move her hand to clear her eyes, probably trying to massage them.
But the result was shocking.
'I-I-I can't feel my hand,' she thought.
She was able to hear some weak sounds like someone was struggling to talk like someone was trying to stop someone from doing something.
"N-n-no," was the first voice she heard after opening her eyes. It was a faint familiar voice with a familiar tone and accent.
Little by little, her vision started to become clear. Her blurry vision disappeared, but still, she was unable to feel her hand.
When she opened her eyes, the first thing that came into her vision was Gustine, a blood-dyed figure, standing still in his place like a statue, an immovable stone.
