Lights glared down from fluorescent tubes, headache throbbing behind my eyes. Where had all the light come from? It didn’t make sense, everything was so… bright. I tried to find the source of the light, but couldn't find it. Were those... voices I could hear? I shuddered, looking around to see if anyone was nearby. There was — was there? I rubbed my eyes, vision clearing to reveal someone beside me. Palindromic feelings aside, it was hard to make out the pers—whatever it was.

"Hello, Protagonist," Said a voice behind me.

I started in surprise, whirling my head around to get a look. But there seemed to be nothing but air behind me. I was sure I heard something…

"Can you not see me?"

I peered into the light, searching. I couldn’t see anything unusual, just the plain tiled wall.

"How strange. I suppose you haven't yet gained your Blessings? I told them this new human-to-kandra system wouldn't work." The voice sighed before continuing, "Whatever. I still have to do as they tell me."

"A-and what did they tell you to do?"

"Oh, darn it, you're still listening! Alright, look here, Miss... uh, Miss Miller, I have a job to do here, OK?"

"No!

How do you even know my name!?"

"Oh, darn it, you're still listening! Alright, look here, Miss... uh, Miss Miller, I have a job to do here, OK?"

"No!“

The voice sighed again: “It thought you were smarter than this, Miss Miller.”

“I’M SMAR— Wait, It?”

A shape began to coalesce in front of me. The shape of a massive ship, it's lights burning through the mist. It seemed familiar, almost. I searched my memory, knowing I had seen this before, but whatever it was, it slipped from my mind like water through fingers. 

"Behold, the ship of the Great Lord, and he himself as well; bow, now, child, before the might of the Great Lord Valentino!"

I remained standing, equal parts confused and stupefied by the phenomenon. Upon the deck stood a tall, handsome man with a black cape and two polished, silver shortswords. 

"How do you know my name?" I eventually forced out. 

The man chuckled a bit before replying, "My Great Lord... he has many informants, even among your kind."

"...My kind? 

“You know, Humans. Mortals.”

“Didn’t…. The voice said I was a Kandra…”

”The voice- being me -said you didn’t get your blessings yet”

I felt all over my body, searching for the cold metal of a hemalurgic spike. But suddenly, a cold hand grabbed mine and I froze.

“Stop squirming, it’ll go better that way”

Lights glared down from fluorescent tubes, headache throbbing behind my eyes. Where had all the light come from? It didn’t make sense, everything was so… bright. I tried to find the source of the light, but couldn't find it. Were those... voices I could hear? I shuddered, looking around to see if anyone was nearby. There was — was there? I rubbed my eyes, vision clearing to reveal someone beside me. Palindromic feelings aside, it was hard to make out the pers—whatever it was.

"Hello, Protagonist," Said a voice behind me.

I started in surprise, whirling my head around to get a look. But there seemed to be nothing but air behind me. I was sure I heard something…

"Can you not see me?"

I peered into the light, searching. I couldn’t see anything unusual, just the plain tiled wall.

"How strange. I suppose you haven't yet gained your Blessings? I told them this new human-to-kandra system wouldn't work." The voice sighed before continuing, "Whatever. I still have to do as they tell me."

"A-and what did they tell you to do?"

"Oh, darn it, you're still listening! Alright, look here, Miss... uh, Miss Miller, I have a job to do here, OK?"

"No!“
