Darkness reigned everywhere!
It obstructed his senses. All his senses. No matter how hard he tried, none of his senses relayed any information to his brain. His struggle too came from his physical awareness not from his mind.
He remained clad in darkness till his senses picked the first buzz. It was faint. Involuntarily, being prickled by the first sound, his ears twitched. The buzz turned sharper and sharper, till his mind recognized something.
"...wake up…"
The sound was far yet close. Somehow it increased his heartbeat.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
The muffled beating of his heart fell on his ear. His body strained itself more.
Something sweet entered his nose. His nostrils flared wide open on itself, inhaling it completely. The high note in the fragrance prickled but reminded him of the summer flowers in the valleys of the Endless Mountains.
