Never in his life had he been proven so wrong so quickly."Yeah, I think we fixed your nature dilemma."Saber nodded, following them out of the white room towards a horse-drawn carriage. His attention is stolen by everything as he struggled to comprehend how everything was real, and he hadn't fallen asleep."Saber, over here." Gavril waved from behind him.

You are to be finding out what the girl has learned this weekend.""She was in an accident this morning, and they took her to the hospital. Probably staying overnight.

For a moment she believed her to be the woman she spoke to in the forest but quickly realized the two only slightly resembled one another. Sisters perhaps.Her mother quickly bowed at the sight of her. Was this the Sacred One she has been told about? Eerie timing ifitwas."Who are you?""Have you not been explaining things to her?" The glowing woman turned towards her mother who was a little surprised by the question."The past few days have been uncharacteristically eventful for her. A lot to explain in two days, especially with her being unconscious for most of the weekend.""Well, she is awake now, you sho-""None of this answers my question," Genevieve interrupted.

Your mother said everything was fine, but we wanted to come in and check for ourselves.""Yeah, we had an argument."

No, he was sitting in the chair.""Nobody was in the chair when I walked in. Maybe I should go grab the doctor.""No, can you send my mom in on your way out?""Alright." The

A confused teenage boy sat across from Genevieve and her mother who were both visibly concerned."Sorry, am I interrupting something?" Her mother turned to him as he cautiously entered the room."Not until your father comes back with any answers. We don't exactly have an understanding of what's going on. This is Ambrose. Apparently, he may be able to make himself invisible.""Wait, doesn't he work for...?""Yes. He is also Gen's boyfriend. Things are a little complicated right now.""Oh, okay.'" Saber shrugged, not knowing what else to say.The entire situation was already awkward without the fact he didn't have any connection with anyone here.
