"What is this place?" Gabriel stood before a window, looking outside. He was sure he was in a dream, but he still had to find out what kind of dream it was.
Was it like his first bizarre dream where he could just watch and not do anything? Or was it like his last dream where he t the Goddess of Nature and was able to interact with her as long as the progression of mories didn't stop?
From the window, he had a really strange view of the outside. Through the window, it was evident that he was at a great height from the actual surface outside, as if he was on one of the highest floors of so tower.
Outside the tower, there was nothing but water. As far as the eyes could see, only beautiful blue water could be seen that appeared to be eting the blue sky at the end of his view.
It was really surprising to see a structure of this height if it was actually in the middle of the sea. However, he also realized that he only had a view of one side of the tower. Maybe there was ground on the other end of the tower where there was no window for him to look outside?
He placed his fingers on the windows and gently pushed them open. The windows opened toward the outside, letting all the fresh air co inside.
The fresh sea breeze was sothing that Gabriel hadn't felt before as he lived in a place where they didn't have a sea anywhere close to them. The gentle breeze was quite refreshing and actually managed to calm his head which was still worried.
He wasn't concerned about this dream, as the dreams often broke on their own after a few hours. He wasn't trapped here. The only real concern was the Prison of Darkness which he needed to break out of. He had to find a way to get out of that ss after he left this place.
He brought his head out the window and looked around, wondering if he could see even a glimpse of so land nearby.
"No land here. It doesn't look like the sea is going to end here either. There shouldn't be any land nearby," he analyzed, based on the visuals. "Still... If soone made a tower here, there's no way they would make one that no one could reach. There must be a bridge or sothing connecting to the tower that leads to the land."
"First, I need to find that exit."
"Body of Light: Flight!" he cast a Spell, only to rember that in these dreams, he didn't have his Elent of Light to use that spell.
As the spell didn't work, he glanced at the back of his left hand. "Right when I need it..."
The Flight Spell of Elent of Light allowed him to fly. Even though it was a low-tier flight spell that only allowed him to fly at a specific height and only for a few minutes, those few minutes should've been more for him to observe the tower's surroundings and land on the bridge, if there were any.
Unfortunately, that spell couldn't be used. He couldn't jump out of the window either as he was at a great height, and from that height, even if he fell into the body of water, he was going to be hurt badly.
He didn't know if he could get hurt in the dreams or not, but he was sure that he could certainly feel pain. In the last dream, when the Goddess of Nature attacked him for killing her brother, he definitely felt a lot of pain.
Fortunately, there was also another path. Not too far from the window, there was also a wooden door.
He stepped closer to the door, which had a prominent crack spread across it. The crack was definitely not from a blunt weapon.
It didn't look like it ca when soone tried to break the door, as the angle was all wrong. It looked more like soone had left that mark intentionally there, making it with a sword.
Through the cracks, he could also see so light coming inside. Whatever it was outside the door, the place was definitely brighter than the room he was in.
There was also no handle on the door, let alone a lock. Gabriel reached out his hands to push the door open but stopped before his fingers could even touch the old rotten door.
Just as his fingers were about to touch the door, he heard so sound coming from outside.
Tap~
Tap~
It was the sound of footsteps as if soone was walking closer to the door from the other side. The sound of footsteps only beca more prominent as the person outside the door walked closer to the door.
From the sound of footsteps, it was quite hard to guess if it was a man or a woman, but one thing was for sure. It was definitely a human and no beast who was coming from outside.
Gabriel stepped back, gaining so distance. He didn't know who was outside the door, but he was sure that whoever this person was, he didn't know him.
He was sure he was seeing Karyk's mories from the last few tis. This was supposed to be no different than that. The person outside was definitely soone from Karyk's tiline... And if it was a person from that tiline, there was no way that person was going to be alive in his tiline for him to know about them.
Unless it was another God of Elent like the Goddess of Nature, there was no way for him to know even a single thing about them.
The footsteps stopped right before the door. There was only silence for a few seconds as Gabriel waited for the doors to open with bated breath.
Accompanying a creaking noise, the old door started opening toward the outside.
As the door was fully open, Gabriel managed to see the person who had just arrived. Seeing the person outside the door, all of Gabriel's initial expectations went upside down.
"It's you?" he asked with disbelief. "How can you be in these mories?"
