Young Master, you should head inside, it's cold.

*smiles* You've grown alot, Master.
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Thanks.. I don't know why...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
I keep expecting to feel different, Renold... *wrapping the shawl better*
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Like.... I'll wake up in sudden...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
And suddenly the world will make sense...
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
Don't rush sense, Young Master.
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
It'll come to you whenever the time's right.
Aiden Vesper [MC]

*laughs softly* *sad laugh*
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Do you ever wondered...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Why I have no memories of before here..?
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
*pauses for a second*
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
Some memories are too heavy for a child, Young Master... Back then you were a child..
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
You had nightmares for years... where they even made you scream your lungs out.... *pain voice*
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
*touching the pendant on his neck*
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
I still have dreams...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
A burning house.
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
A woman singing at night...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Blood.
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
It feels too real to be a dream...
They both start walking towards the mansion main door.
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
*softens* Dreams are just ghosts with nowhere to go.
A moment of silence.
Aiden stops and turns around.
A walk path which leads to the entry from a huge gate, and apart from there is no sign of another house.
In the middle of a forest.
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
*looking at the view*
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
But still...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Don't you think it's strange?
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
I've never been allowed to leave the woods..
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
No letters...
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
It's like I don't exist to this world, Renold.
Aiden looks at Renold.
Renold [Bulter]
Renold [Bulter]
*calm* You're safe. That's what matters, Young Master.
Aiden Vesper [MC]
Aiden Vesper [MC]
*pain in his eyes* Safety feels like a cage after a while.
