[X] Awaken.
---
Grimnír wakes with a start, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. He forces himself to sit up as he surveys his surroundings. He seems to be in a bed of some kind, but he doesn't recognize the room. He slowly turns his head from to side to side when suddenly...
"Argh!"
Head is burning. Heat. Sear. Immolate. Need something to cool it. Need ice. Heat. Sear. Immolate. Mind is on fire. It's burning harder.
{Heat. Sear. Immolate. Sacrifice}
"Urgh!"
Cut. Slice. Sever. Head is being torn apart. Losing focus. Cut. Slice. Sever. Losing control. Who am I?
{Cut. Slice. Sever. Dissection}
He collapses on the bed, unable to move. The burning and the cutting are too painful - beyond wounds and injury. As his vision blurs, he wonders if his very existence is being torn apart. Is this the end? Dying in some unknown land for no reason. This is so unfair. Just when I thought I started to understand. Understand? What is he trying to understand? The concept is fading away. Everything is so confusing. He should just close his eyes and leave it all to the others. The others? He frowns as he sees her crying face. He would be leaving her, if he died like this. But that shouldn't matter. After all, he is only...
"... you ... right? ... an... me?"
A voice? Maybe he is starting to hallucinate again. Just forget it.
"..ey! ... help ... you!"
Again he hears it. Such a bother, interrupting his rest. Who is making that racket?
"... recover? .... Eientei.. cine."
Three times. Not a dream. Not an illusion. Not a trick. Focus. Align. Harmonize.
Grimnír forces himself to sit up, but his vision isn't clearing. There is someone else in the room. A woman with long hair. Can't make out other details.
{Isn't that cute?}
