Chapter 2 - Awakening

Scene 2:

(Fol feels the surrounding space dissolve. His consciousness is pulled as though being drawn to another place. Soon, he opens his eyes to see a bright ceiling above him. Leaning over him is a figure—a stranger.)

Stranger:

— Lord Folin! Please, wake up.

Fol (grimacing):

— Who are you? And what in the name of a drakon am I doing here?

(He abruptly sits up, wincing from the pain in his body and a strange dizziness. The stranger looks concerned.)

Stranger:

— I'll explain everything later, my lord. But for now… your companion is waiting for you.

Fol (standing, unsteady):

— Lous? She's here?

Stranger:

— Yes. But to see her, you must pass a trial.

(Fol frowns, realizing that what lies ahead will be far more challenging than simply saving one world.)
