Only after three days did Orion wake up. Groggily, he rubbed his eyes and looked around. He noticed that he was in a tent. Although he knew that others couldn't move him thanks to his infinity, he realized that he was still in the same place where he had fallen asleep earlier.
Thankfully, no one was around him, so he teleported directly to Dumbledore's office. Talking with him was important.
Though he did realize that, to save his own skin, he should meet both Rose and Daphne first, he had to meet Dumbledore and tell him what happened.
In the office, he found Dumbledore sitting behind his desk, holding his head as if he had a headache. Orion, seeing this, smiled. At least something good had come out of this.
"Well, this place sure is looking gloomy, even more so than the last time I was here," Orion said with a smirk, making Dumbledore snap his head up in both surprise and shock.
He saw the white-haired boy looking at him with a smirk and had the urge to walk up to him and slap his head off in annoyance. But there was another thing: Orion had sneaked up on him, and Dumbledore hadn't even sensed his presence until Orion announced himself.
"Orion… when did you wake up? No, forget that… quickly tell me what happened. Do you know what happened to Nick, Hermione, and Ms. Morgan?" Dumbledore asked, worry etched on his face.
"Well, that's the reason I came directly to you after waking up. It's finally time to explain everything to you. It's going to be a long story. Hope you have time," Orion replied, to which Dumbledore nodded eagerly.
"Good… again, it's a long story, and it's not just about what happened back then but a lot that you still don't know. Please listen carefully. It's important." Orion said, and Dumbledore made a strange face, not understanding what Orion was talking about. But he realized that he was finally about to learn Orion's secret, or at least he believed he would. Anything regarding Orion could give him some insight into why he was the way he was.
Orion then slowly started to explain everything—from the fact that soon a rebirth of magic would take place to the existence of Death herself. He only withheld information about Merlin, but besides that, he told Dumbledore almost everything to Dumbledore's amazement.
"So you are saying that Hermione Granger was long dead and what we were facing all this time was nothing more than a puppet—a puppet of one of the darkest witches of all time, Morgana Le Fay. And you killed her along with Voldemort and Bellatrix," Dumbledore summarized the entire explanation and felt his headache intensify.
Dumbledore sighed and went back to his desk, feeling half like not bothering with this and half not even believing it. But he had to, knowing that if what Orion was telling him was true—which it most likely was, considering that beside legendary figures like Merlin or Morgana, no one else could do what he and others saw three days ago where the fight took place.
"Please tell me you have a plan ready," Dumbledore said, taking a sip of his lemon tea while sweating despite it being quite cold in Scotland right now.
"Yeah… just put everything on Voldy. No need to announce anything about Morgana or others. Tell them that Hermione and Nick were Death Eaters and somehow bring Voldemort back to life. Then say they planned to ambush Rose, but by mistake, I ended up going there, and a fight happened with the Hero winning… Happy ending," Orion replied, shrugging.
Seeing the exaggerated expression on Dumbledore's face, Orion anticipated what he was about to ask, so he replied immediately, "Don't worry, I have the memories to prove that what I'm saying is true. And about Morgan acting as Rose and the real Rose still being here at Hogwarts, leave that to me."
Dumbledore sighed, seeing there was no other way anyway.

Orion groggily opened his eyes a second time, this time mostly acting in front of the girls. He had to; otherwise, if they knew that he hadn't come to them but had gone to speak with Dumbledore right after waking up, not even his magic could save him from their wrath.
As his vision cleared, he saw two familiar faces hovering over him—Rose and Daphne, both looking worried and relieved at the same time.
"You're finally awake!" Rose exclaimed, her voice a mix of relief and frustration. "Do you have any idea how worried we were?"
Daphne crossed her arms, her expression stern. "Three days, Orion. You've been out for three whole days."
Orion tried to sit up, but the effort made him wince. Sigh, knew this was going to be troublesome.
"Alright, alright. Before anything, let me explain what happened. I'm sure you're all dying to know how I took out one-third of Scotland's Greenland," Orion decided to start with the information part; he would handle other things later on.
