”Could you please start at the beginning? I know that some fanatics are currently trying to summon a god to my current world. But a council member at that? And why would any god have the need to be summoned?” Seria will have to do some explaining here.

”Unfortunately I don't have very much time. Just until you wake up. But to make it short. Your world is inside a void zone. It is my personal playground, no other god has access to it. I grabbed you two for myself, because I like you two. Tjenemit isn't too fond of me and has found out about my little rebellion against the council. Although he has no proof, he is trying to get access to this world. I plan to let him enter your world to fight him there. I can't come to the world, because it would help him to get access and I am not ready to fight him, yet.”

”A rebellion against the Council?” I ask her.

”Just a little long term plan of mine.” Seria smiles an innocent smile at me.

”And what if I stop him from gaining access at all?” I ask her.

”Feel free to try, but when I interpret the stuff in your head correctly, it's unlikely. Other questions?” -Seria

”How do you know this place?” -Me

”Hmmm, I wonder? It's a nice and peaceful place isn't it? That reminds me! How is it going with your wife? Did you two already make up?” -Seria

”You are trying to evade the question... It is going okay I guess?” I answer.

”Wonderful, I wish I could show up to the marriage! Maybe I will project an image of myself to visit you for a few hours.” -Seria

”Why are you so enthusiastic about this?” -Me

”Why shouldn't I be enthusiastic about the marriage of two people, I brought together? But I fear our time is up.” Seria pats my head.

”What? You still have some explaining to do!” Somehow the world distorts and starts to fade away.

”Don't forget to take a close look at that soul, you captured..... and be nice to your wife.”

….

I open my eyes and look at the ceiling. ”That's what I would call a nightmare.” I look to the side and see my mother smiling at me.

”I am glad you woke up.” She whispers and I become aware that something is lying on top of me. I lift the sheet and discover Celes. ”Why are you using a sick person as a body pillow?”

”She was at your bed for three days now, like me. The healers already started to dig your grave.” -Ireth

”Is that so? I guess I will have to disappoint them. Anything else?” -Me

”Nothing that couldn't wait. After your little demonstration, everyone was surprisingly docile. I never heard so few complaints.” -Ireth

Ireth pats my head with a relieved expression and leaves the room. Wait! You have to take Celes with you. I try to slip out of her grasp, but suddenly she tightens down around me like a vice! OOWW! I need the healers again!

”Nyahahhaha. You won't get away... the body pillow has no right to sneak off...”

What the hell are you dreaming!?
