ALEXANDER'S PAST (1)

"How do I enter his dream?"

I asked David, who seemed to ponder on the matter. He looked around the room and grabbed a black helmet from the walls with wires hanging down, along with a syringe.

He tells me, "Sit down next to the prince."

I looked at him suspiciously and sat down but didn't forget to ask, "What is that?"

He explains in a calm tone, "This is the helmet that will connect your brain to the dreams. But this time I will connect the wires to the prince."

I watched him with curiosity and caution while he connected one end of the wire to the prince's shoulder, who continued to resemble, and beads of sweat formed on his face.

I watched him and thought this was the first time he really didn't look so good, vulnerable and weak. Sure, he looked weak before getting whipped, but his eyes always remained unyielding and unwavering, like nothing in the world could touch him.
