Ninety-Five:
Aylin Realm
My eyes quickly opened as soon as the faint memory ended.
'Wake up and be reborn?' I think of it harder before I sit up and look around.
"You're still here in Aylin Realm." Suddenly someone answered my silent question.
"Asim?" I look at him and he was sitting at the single sofa near the window. "What are you still doing here?"
"Waiting for you to wake up," he simply answered.
"I'm awake now so, you may go back to the Dream World."
"Indeed, you were right. And I've been here for a long time and I don't know how long will I going to stay here while waiting for you to wake up."
"Long time? What do you mean?"
He sighs deeply before answering. "You were unconscious for five days."
"What!" surprised was written all my face after hearing what he answered. "No!" I was about to stand up when suddenly I feel that my world revolves and I couldn't stand up anymore.
"Almos!" Asim immediately went to my side and guide me back to the bed. "You shouldn't move that easily!" he irritably said and sighs heavily before bringing me back to my bed. "Anyway, the reason why I'm still here is something happened that we cannot explain."
"Not even God Epiales?"
"Yes. He just suddenly freed me as his anchor without him doing nothing."
"How does it happened?" I'm clueless even from what was the cause of my sudden coma.
"As I said earlier, we couldn't explain it. Not even a God or a Goddess can explain it."
Silence.
"Almos!" suddenly someone came in and I'm surprised that Goddess Dione finally awakened. "I'm glad to see you finally conscious." She added.
"Five days. And I don't understand why I was unconscious for five days?"
"We also don't understand what happened to you, you just appeared somewhere here in Aylin after disappearing like a bubble right in front of me." it was Epiales who answered me and he was just right next to Dione, I don't even sense his presence and I'm not surprised about it since my mind is in focus of the things I have lost after waking up.
I take a deep breath and close my eyes for a while before opening it and look up to them. "I don't remember anything." I honestly said. "And for that reason, I badly want to know what happened to me when I just suddenly vanished without a trace."
Epiales, Dione and Asim seriously stare back at me and it didn't take long when they answered…
"We will help you."

Earth
Five days ago…
My eyes open wide only to greet by a dark sky. I don't know what happened to me but I found myself lying on the grass outside my home. I blink my eyes twice as I think of a valid reason why am I lying here?
I take a deep breath as I finally realize I can't find any valid reason to explain my situation right now. So, I just stand up and ignore everything else when I remember my phone.
I quickly look for it and found it lying on the floor. I took it and check if there's someone who message or call me and I only received text from my family.
'Why? Are expecting Chadd to text or call you?' I asked myself silently and laugh of that thought. "Huh! Yeah! Why should I…" suddenly something entered my mind and everything begins to clear up.
My memories that I couldn't even remember suddenly flows through my mind and knowing everything means one thing, I totally remember Almos.
I heavily sigh. "Yeah! I remember him so clearly." I said as I look up at the night sky. "And I hope you were doing fine right now."
…
Aylin Realm
Present…
"Jeanne!" I quickly said after regaining my strength to sit up from my bed. "How is she?"
"She's fine nothing to worry." Dione answered.
"I…" I couldn't explain it as if I know something important that I have to tell and yet I couldn't even remember what it is.
"Almos? Are you alright?" Dione worriedly asked me as I became frozen for a while.
"Yeah! I'm fine." I answered as soon as I regain myself. "So, what do you have in mind God Epiales? How can I retrieve my lost memories?"
"We are going to ask the God of Memories, as soon as you'll be totally fine."
"I am."
"No, not yet." He answered. "For now, you still need to rest and we will go as soon as I see totally fine."
For that reason, I don't have a choice but to listen to him and wait for another day to pass.
…
Unknown Place
"My lord."
"Bellinor, have you found something that could explain what happened here?"
"I'm so sorry, my lord. I couldn't find anything."
I take a deep breath as I think of any clue that may answer my question. And yet, I can't find anything that can help me.
"How about Almos? Have you found him?"
"Yes, my lord."
"So, where he is?"
"He is in Aylin Realm now."
"Not in the Dream World?" I surprisingly asked and I couldn't believe that he was at the Aylin Realm where the Gods and the Goddesses of the Moon resides.
"Yes, indeed my lord."
"Uhm, that's interesting."
"What do you want me to do?"
"No, you have nothing to do. For now, I'll wait for the right time." I answered. "Anyway, how about Lady Jeanne? How is she?"
"She's in Earth and living her life normally."
"Same as before?"
"Yes, my lord."
"Is there anything unusual about her actions?"
"Nothing."
"Really?"
"Yes, my lord."
"Uhm, so I think, I shall visit her." I decided.
"But, my lord!"
"What?"
"I don't think you will be able to approach or get her attention because there is a thick barrier surround her and she is protected by that barrier. No Immortal can come close to her even in her dreams."
