CHAPTER 63: Start
After having a conversation with Magnus and agreeing to undergo the illusion, he advised me to go to sleep. Awkward. He stared at me as I slowly lied down myself to the bed. It wasn’t like any other nights because I was aware now of what I might possibly face when I wake up in my dreams.
I tilted my head to look at him. “Are you going to stand there all night?”
He sat beside me. I followed his hands tucked me in on my bed. His eyes didn’t leave mine. He watched my reaction to his fatherly gesture. “Do I have to tell you what to do?”
“Keep her alive, right? Nothing could confuse me more,” I answered. “What should I need to understand before heading there? What awaits me? What kind of death will I face? What should I sacrifice?”
“Your death?”
“Yes.”
“The humans.”
