Aftermath (1)

*Kaler's POV*

I feel light. I feel like I'm swimming in a pool with no bottom. Everything felt numb. It's as if my limbs weren't there. Opening my eyes was a chore on its own. With a great deal of effort, I managed to peel my eyes open. What I saw sent a jolt through my body.

It was exactly what it felt like. I looked above to see what seemed like a light. It was faint, dim, far away. What surrounded me was water, and vast nothingness. Below me, darkness, above me, faint light.

"Where am I…" I muttered aloud.

"Nowhere." A deep and primal voice responded. I was stupefied. Where did that come from?

"Who's there?" I asked.

"I am your will. I am an extension of thee. Those who wish to hurt thee, those that thine wish to hurt, shall coat my body in bright red. " I looked around frantically trying to find the sign of the voice. I sensed no hostility in it, the opposite in fact, but the fear of the unknown is innate in any being.
