The sudden light lightens up the entire cave. Brightness is so intense that it is hard to keep my eyes open.Open up, look - someone was whispering; the voice was echoing in a particular place as if I was boxed in a place.
Slowly, I open my eyes, a white surface; as far as I delve in, all I can see is white. No one here, not even Levana, like in my dreams, I stand here all alone. Not even those guys from before.
It is a weird sensation; no matter how loud I shout, in the end, all that comes to my ear like a faint voice.
Soon, I begin to walk further, looking for someone or something other than this white look. Yet no matter how much I walk, all margin in failure. This endless space was suffocating me.
I did not even hear the voice when I first came here. I walk, walk, and walk, yet there reached no end. It was like an endless loop with no bounds.
Hello… anyone here… Leve… I shout, no answer. Hopeless, I fell backward but found myself standing. No matter what postures I try, none work. Standing all alone in this space, I was losing my mind.
Maybe this was a bad idea, possibly opening that box was the wrong choice, perhaps coming to the forest was wrong, or maybe sneaking out was what started this all...one after another, a conclusion came to mind, questioning even my birth.
That's right, I should not have been born again, or not as Arya mostly. There are so many conclusions reaching no specific line, and I am fully aware of how irrelevant those are.
As I kept walking on this vast expanse without a destination, I felt pathetic at myself. In a world different from mine, I incredibly faced unexpected circumstances. Laugh at me all you want...even I am also laughing at my outcome.
Surprising me, a breeze passed, touching me; it appeared out of the blue. Blowing in one direction, thinking of it as a thread that might connect to the end, I started following.
The wind led me to the stairs, white stairs floating in the air; above stood a black door.
"Is that the way out?" *sighs. I step on the first one. It would seem like ordinary stairs if it were not for this environment. Nothing is typical in this world; thinking like this will only be foolish and ignoring reality.
As I climb, I notice that the lower stairs begin to despair. Afraid of failure, I hotfoot to the door.
Eventually, I came in front of the door. As I grabbed the door handle, many hands reached out to me, grabbed me from every hook, and pulled me inside.
The moment I saw what was inside, I knew the very moment that my adventure started henceforth.
There was Leve, in the center, within the bounds of a thick glass capsule hovering in the air.
Like a child in their mother's womb, illuminating the whole place with her radiant light, she was in deep slumber.
Slowly but surely, keeping my peace, I walk towards her. From the light touch of my fingers, the glass capsule broke. Swiftly, I reached out both hands, and she fell into my palms.
