The awakening
Kurogane’s eyes were almost too heavy for him to open them. He was a bit dizzy, his mind confused. Where was he? The last thing he remembered, he was with the kids and the mage in some sort of forest - a minor country witch probably didin’t countain any feathers, but he didin’t remember leaving it. He got up with some effort. It was dark, but he could see he was in a room, lying in a bed. When had they teleported? Where were the others?
He couldn’t feel another living being close, what slightly disturbed him. It had been a longe time since he was alone, he usually shared a room with his companions to make their trips cheapier. Mokona was nowhere to be seen, but as soon he found another person, he could discover if the fur ball was close or not.
Seeing staying lied down would give him no answers, he stood up and went for the door. It was slightly open, so he passed through, and endend up in an empty hallway. He started to walk, hoping to find someone or something that could give him a hint of where the hell he was. A light in the distance called his attention, so he went towards it.
