Chapter 125

"Aiden?"

I felt something soft and warm pressing against my face and I blearily blinked open my eyes to look up into Misty's crimson eyes, relief washing through them me as they met my own.

"Thank heavens." She sighed and turned her away to address someone. "He's awake."

She turned back to me with a soft smile. "You really need to stop ending up like this."

I snorted and slowly sat up. My mind felt sluggish, but as I turned to watch Zirnai approaching, memories of what had occurred became clear and my eyes widened as I quickly glanced at our surroundings, only to find that we were no longer on the tower or the floor at all. In fact, it seemed like we were outside the tower, at the twin horn camp we'd looted when we'd first arrived. The tower also looked different, smaller, and while it was still grey, it no longer held a multitude of clours, only an azure blue and orange drifted on its surface.

"I'm guessing we won?" I asked, turning to Zirani who nodded with a hesitant smile.
