Astral Odyssey: Dying Ember
The book was a gift and he would cherish it.
Nozomi ended up sleeping for the longest record time. Each time Nozomi frowned, breathed erratically, and stirred in her sleep like she was disturbed, Hikaru cast a calming spell. In turn, he was hit with the sights she saw in her sleep, thus sharing her emotional turmoil as well.
The more he saw her visions, the more certain he was that Nozomi was not having mere nightmares but experiencing flashbacks.
Was this why she was always so tired? How long had she been living like this? And what happened? Although more and more questions plagued him, Hikaru had to wait until Nozomi woke up to get any answers. Even then, would she open up?
