Rex blinked his eyes as he retained a portion of his sanity.
It felt like he was the third person in his own life.

He couldn't move his body freely but he reckoned he could still talk properly.
But even then, he at least retained his consciousness, so that he wouldn't need to piece back the puzzles of what had happened during his rampage when the Demon Moon passed, and it is a good thing.
Rex watched the Order Beasts as the three were surprised to et each other.
However, they were smart enough to realize that they were lured here by those Dark Elves.
Even then, the air around them was tense, filled with the law of the wilderness.
"Say, Kyran..." Rex whispered, his back against Kyran. "Do you really care about Naela?"
"Yes, I now know what you feel. How do you get rid of this sinking feeling? It's suffocating"
Just like Rex, once they were close, Kyran's sanity returned enough for him to think.
It was not his rampage self before, this was really Kyran.
Recalling how Naela looked when he visited before—Rex nodded, Kyran did feel what he felt and that was not false. Although maybe not as painful as Rex's, who had his parents killed, it was close.
Grinning, exposing his sharp fangs, Rex answered.
"Getting rid of it? Why do you want that?"
"It's suffocating... rembering her state makes hard to breathe"
"Good, that's good. That suffocating feeling is a reminder of what would happen if you're not strong enough—don't find a way to erase it but rember it. Learn to live with it so that next ti you will anticipate the bad things before they could happen"
Upon hearing this, Kyran's eyes widened.
He reached for his chest, the sinking feeling was inside of him and it made his heart throb.
'Is this feeling what made Rex keep those he cared about, safe...? He learned to live with this feeling? How? It's impossible—I don't think I could but...' Kyran turned to look behind, he saw Rex's side face and felt a newfound admiration. 'I want to be like him!'
Oblivious to what was going on inside Kyran's mind, Rex focused on the mont.
System, how did I retain my consciousness right now?
