4. Unexpected Guest (4)
I don’t know how long I was in the darkness. I existed without sensation. I saw nothing and heard nothing, not even my own breath; my voice escaped only in silence. I tried to move my limbs, but there...
5. Unexpected Guest (5)
My consciousness bloomed in a strange place. Using a sense that didn’t exist in the body, I felt the presence of the one who had been calling out to me. It shone bright and solid within its vessel and...
6. Unexpected Guest (6)
No, if I thought about it, I didn’t save Luka. All I’d done was a little talking; Luka had done all the fighting and escaping himself. I was basically just an innocent bystander. Whether Luka died or ...

In the end, Linden passed out while getting treatment anyways, so he didn’t have to fake waking up after Acacius.
