He looked at it with wonder in his expression, seemingly admiring it. On his finger was a single tear, glittering in the sunlight. Only good dreams could elicit such beautiful tears of suffering.' The man reached out with his pale finger grazed her cheek with it. 'W-what do you want!' 18 backed away fearfully until her back hit the wall of the cave. The man's smile grew wider, he slowly stood up and walked over to 18. Remembering the nightmare that had given her many sleepless nights before, 18 gave a frown before spitting in disgust. I see you had a good dream.' The man smiled. Up above his eyes was a peculiar black crystal. They gave her a feeling of bottomlessness and a hidden terror that seeped into her bones. His brows gave him a natural cold stare and his eyes were completely black like to voids which drew in all surrounding light. The man's features were sharp and flawless.

She looked around with darting eyes to see if she was being cooked for dinner but the reality was different from her thoughts.ġ8 was bound tightly but not in any immediate danger, she sitting was at the mouth of the dungeon she had escaped from, right next to a fire. 'I was captured by a demon! She wanted to eat me!' Her ears twitched at the crackle of a nearby fire, smelling smoke, she suddenly remembered what happened. What came into her sight was a familiar rocky ceiling, only that it was now in the light of the sun. A raspy yet charismatic voice echoed in 18's fluffy ears.
