Karkus stared at his palms then at the back of his palm as if searching for something.
“When I was in high school, I encountered a group of delinquents in an alleyway. They were a rowdy bunch: smoking, drinking, and eating snacks.”
Cerea cocked her head to the side and said, “High school?”
Karkus paused. He gazed at her, trying to figure something, then he turned to Trakun. Trakun, however, just chuckled and shook his head.
So it’s true, Karkus thought.
“Hey, can you tell me what’s high school and those things are?” she said, pulling his arms.
Karkus sighed. “It’s an institution where you are taught about the world,” he said, glancing at Trakun. “You can learn things from there. And I actually misspoke. To be honest, I don’t completely remember …show more content…
“I kept telling you that he’s in Relapse.”
“You’re lying, a Relapse can’t last that long—it should be less than an hour at most. But starting from the time I visited here, he was still in that state.”
“What’s this Relapse?” Karkus asked.
“It’s the rarest disease in Omneira,” she said. “When you are inflicted with that, scholars say that your mind and body separates from each other. Your body will be stationary no matter what happens, like from earlier you didn’t notice I batter—pull you back to normal rather.”
“Did you just say batter? You meant to do that to me, didn’t you?”
“Though it’s strange that you can move while in Relapse, perhaps it’s a semi-Relapse,” She continued, putting her hands on her temples. “Moving on, your mind will re-experience some events from your past. Whether it’s trivial or something important, you will experience it as if you’re in control. You will have no idea that it was a memory, and will act according to what you did that time. To be exact, you will re-live your memories. ”
“I think I’ve heard of it before,” Karkus said, “I’m not sure when …show more content…
This place is real, a dungeon perhaps.”
“You can imagine whatever you want, this place will be a fleeting memory to you, this conversation, too.”
“If that’s true, then Trakun please make it so that when I awake, I’ll remember both of you and the things I saw here.”
“Since you’ve been a great companion here for two years, I’ll make it happen. After all, this will be your last visit here. Karkus here is already awake from his Relapse, and we’ve got something important to talk about. Cerea, you’ll remember us and this place. Not as a place from reality, but in a more dreamlike place, and as a bonus I’ll include your past visits here to your memory. A good deal, don’t you think? This is the last time you dream of this place.”
Cerea paled, she approached Trakun and said, “Why? I want to visit this place again, and talk to Karkus. This is the first time we talked; he just got out from Relapse.”
“You can talk to him again, maybe in the near future. Who knows?”
“Really?”
“Yes, I promise you that. I told both of you today that I’m the maker of destiny. I can assure you that I’ll make it happen because I never lied to you.”
“Then, I’ll remember everything here and meet Karkus soon?” Cerea repeated, asking for
