Denis' POV

     Just like a book with a long storyline, when the chapter is over, it's time to proceed to the next one. I sense the inklings of a fresh start, a new chapter awaiting me. Uncertainty shrouds my thoughts as I ponder what lies ahead in the unwritten pages of my future.

     Amidst the stillness of night, memories of a surreal past dance vividly in my mind's eye as if they occurred yesterday. The connections forged, the experiences shared—they remain etched deep within my being, evoking a sense of longing and nostalgia.

     Startled awake, a sharp gasp escapes my lips, shattering the silence of my dimly lit room. Rising from my disheveled bed, beads of sweat cling to my brow, prompting me to brush them away, disturbed by their damp touch.

     In the realms of slumber, a recurring dream surfaces, featuring my dear friend Harris. His presence illuminated my darkest hours, casting a radiant light upon my world. The desire to reunite with him lingers, a promise whispered between kindred spirits, awaiting fulfillment.

     A soft, ethereal blue radiance draws my gaze. Beneath the folds of my blanket, a pulsating glow beckons, prompting me to uncover its source. Revealed beneath the fabric lies a blue crystal, its luminance akin to the twinkling night stars above.

     Reaching out, my hand grasps the icy gem. Examining it closely, I squint, contemplating the enigmatic purpose of this peculiar object. Memories flood back from two years past when I obtained this artifact in that fantastical realm. Oracle Miriam, a venerable seer, bestowed it upon me just before departing that surreal universe with Lyvie. What mysteries lie within this crystal, and what significance does it hold in my journey?

     Puzzling and enigmatic, the crystal stirs a flurry of theories and conjectures in my mind as I strive to unravel its secrets. Yet, resigned to the mysteries at hand, I recline, allowing the gentle embrace of the pillow to envelop me. Drifting into the realm of dreams, I surrender to sleep, the crystal's enigma lingering in the shadows of my consciousness.
