[Having died again, Sandrath was without his memories once more. He didn't understand why he felt so strange and sick in his current body. Unlike the previous time, he did not flee from his room. He was distracted by the candle that was lit in his room and the endless darkness that surrounded him

[...lmao what]

The fuck is wrong with you?

[dominateartimus]

I do not understand what you mean.

[abstinentzombie]

[...]

Did you die?

[dominateartimus]

No. That... would not be possible.

[Yes.]

.......

San?

What do you mean, a test? Are you well? You are by some source of light, yes?

[There is worry in Aara's expression. Light fear in her eyes, but now her gaze burns with worry for her friend, and unanswered questions.]

[dominateartimus]

[This woman knew him, but how? He never saw her before.]

Y-Yes... I am... fine and by... some 'light'.

[He pauses for a moment. Contemplating that the darkness around him and the cut-off from above wasn't a part of a text.]

This... darkness. Is it a part of a test?

[angha_firebird]

[That... didn't sound too reassuring. Aara tries to remember if she ever heard San stumble over his words before, and can't think of one instance. She frowns with added worry and uses a cautious, gentle tone when she speaks.]

You are certain?

[She certainly seems doubtful, though she doesn't want to worry him with her tone.]

Please stay by light--or fire--until the darkness lifts. Bad things will happen, otherwise. I think people have... disappeared.

What do you mean, a test? It is not something anyone here should expect. It will be over soon, but...

Sandrath. Would it be better perhaps if you had company?

[She doesn't like this feeling of unease. She doesn't like feeling Sandrath seemingly vulnerable and alone. He sounded... off.]

[dominateartimus]

Yes, I am... certain.

[There was a hint of hesitation with his word. He falls quiet at the mention of people disappearing, but just as he musters the courage to ask about it, he is distracted by her next question.]

...This is not part of an excerise by those in above?

[He falls quiet again, trying to think of some sort of explaination to his situation, despite what Kloe has tried to drill in to his head. Aara's question about having company causes him to glance to his current room-mate.]

It... appears I all ready have company, against my... several attempts of saying that I would be fine.
