5 more years passed.
Today was the day…
Sunless was in his room in the waking world, on the Song manor.
The Nightmare Spell was getting to him, sleep creeping in his body.
Then, there were a few knocks on his door.
"Co in"
Revel opened the door slowly.
"You didn't sleep without saying goodbye to everyone first did you?"
Sunless laughed lightly, got up and went to her.
"Since when were you here?"
Revel had long beco a Saint together with Eunbin, Caera, and Hel sohow…
Moon and Terra had beco Masters, all of them with true nas to boot. Revel was Lightslayer.
"Since you chose to be a loner, co before you sleep."
As soon as he got out, Sunless felt a bad feeling, so brute was about to…
"Hey little brother! How have you been?!"
The barbarian that now had the na of Loneso Howl grabbed his head with her ascended strength and rubbed with force.
"Howl- you- Mutt!
Revel! Make her stop!"
Revel was laughing at her poor brother.
"By the Gods, stop, you look like children!"
Eunbin, now Beastmaster, had her usual allure and dress, elegantly walking beside Moon, that ironically, had the true na of Black Moon, but everyone called her Moonveil.
"Fine, fine."
Howl finally let him go.
"Let's go eat, then we will leave you alone."
Eunbin said calmly.
"You guys act like I am going to die…"
It was only the first nightmare, what could go wrong?
"You could die."
Moon said prainly.
"..."
Moonveil started laughing.
"Just kidding! There's no way you die Sunny! Not after everything!"
The rest of the sisters laughed as well, except Sunless.
'She's right though, I can't be arrogant, even legacies have fallen to the first nightmare even with all their training.'
They all went to the dining hall.
There, Hel was waiting for them.
"Hey future dead people! We are all going to die aningless deaths!!"
"... Did my brain just forget that she did that?"
Sunless sincerely asked.
"If it did, I don't bla it…"
Revel said in response.
After that, they all spent an hour just happily eating and chatting…
Until Sunless notices sothing.
"Where's Silent?"
Caera's true na was Silent Stalker, they all called her Silent now because it fit too damn much.
"In her room, I don't know why she didn't co…"
EunBin's answer left Sunless curious.
"I'll just ask her on the way to my room.
See you guys later, Bin, Rev, Moon, Hel, Howl."
As he was returning to his room, Sunless stopped at Stalker's room.
"Hey… Caera? Are you there?"
No response.
Sunless sighed.
'Makes sense I guess… we were never really close…'
Even compared to Revel, Silent was pretty distant to her siblings, she was always on her own world most of the ti, so they never talked.
It didn't help that she seed mute most of the ti.
"Look… just, wish luck…"
He turned to walk away until the door opened and Stalker grabbed his hand.
Then, Sunless finally heard his silent sister speak out loud for the very first ti.
"Don't die."
Sunless smiled.
"You got it."
The Prince then walked to his room with even more confidence.
His sister got in her room again, excited and worried for her brother.
As Sunless finally got to his room, sleep almost getting him, he felt it, his mother was there…
Never underestimate the Spell, my son…
Co back to us…
'I promise.'
With the last advice from his mother, he got into his room. Undying Blade was there, he was the precaution, in case he failed and turned into a nightmare creature.
"So… are you ready?"
"Yes."
Sunless laid down. And fell asleep.
