Chapter 175: Dreams and Nightmares

*Saffron*

I found myself standing in the middle of a black void. It was quiet. So quiet that I wished I had a book to read. It had been ages since I'd had time to sit down and read one. Although, I might've needed a weak light in order to see. It was too dark even for my eyes.

Was this a dream, though? I was pretty sure I'd fallen asleep in an inn.

I closed my eyes. Walking around the dreamscape would just cause my mind to cast tedious images.

"Saf," a weak voice called out.

My eyes opened and surveyed the darkness. That voice belonged to Milo.

I took a deep breath and sighed as I facepalmed. This was a dream, why was I reacting so anxiously? If anything had happened to Milo, Koyuki would've surely have told me. Right? On second thought, maybe she and the others would have kept quiet, in order to not worry me.
