Residing in the Military base on the outskirts of Hornbach was the fuller The Grand Duchy Students, Griffin, and Aedrianna had traveled in together to get there. Where the others went was unclear. Marrianne went out to help fix the weaponry for the soldiers, and Demetrius aided Authur. And August and Charlotte were nowhere to be seen. So it was just Griffin and Aedrianna—or Hikari—inside of the fuller that doubled as their temporary source of travel and residence.
“Where should we start first?” Griffin asked Hikari.

“I can explain the different nations in more detail, I could teach you magic, I can teach you martial combat—I have a spare bow on me you can use. Or we can just talk about things that transported dead people talk about…whatever that is by definition. Whatever you’re most comfortable with!”

Hikari and Griffin were reincarnated—Hikari had no connections to Aedrianna’s memories that Griffin knew of, he also said that to hoped she would establish boundaries for the sake of not accidentally crossing any lines; after all, He had come to terms with her death. Their own death he meant. His death as Aurora and his new life as Griffin. Hikari ..he didn’t know how she fared. He knew it differed on a case-by-case basis—he was reincarnated into a pre-existing vessel much like she was. Kota had been reborn as an entirely newborn person and Ōkami? Who knew? Yukan had been reborn as himself but altered. But coming to terms with things like this wasn’t easy. Especially when she was thrust into very difficult situations recently.​

Hikari sat cross-legged on the fuller’s seat, absently running her fingers over the stack of letters resting in her lap. Her gaze flickered toward Griffin as he listed off his suggestions—magic, martial combat, history—but her mind felt distant, untethered. She hadn’t meant to zone out, but the weight of the past few days, the strange dreams, and the unfamiliar emotions they stirred had left her feeling… off.

She blinked, realizing Griffin had finished speaking. With a small shake of her head, she let out a quiet sigh and gave him a sheepish smile.

“Sorry, I wasn’t really paying attention.” She rubbed the back of her neck, looking down at the letters again. “I’ve just been having these weird dreams lately. Not nightmares, exactly, but… unsettling.”

Her fingers traced the edge of an envelope as she tried to put it into words. “Flashes of things I don’t remember. A life that doesn’t feel like mine.” She hesitated before adding, “And one… I don’t know, it was different. I was dancing with someone—a pale man in dark armor. And he—” She cut herself off, shaking her head quickly. “Never mind. It’s probably just my brain trying to make sense of everything.”

Waving a hand dismissively, she straightened up and tapped the letters on her lap. “Anyway, these showed up for me, or, well… for Aedrianna.”

She picked up one in particular, flipping it open. “This one’s from Kota.” A small, fond smile crossed her lips as she scanned the words again. “He wrote just to check in. Said he fought alongside you, actually. Against the Eastern Empire. He sounds like a good guy.” Her voice softened slightly. “He also told me to stop throwing myself into danger, which, honestly? Sounds fair.”

Her fingers lingered on the parchment before she set it aside, picking up another. She frowned slightly, tilting her head as she read through it. “Rios.” She tested the name aloud before looking up at Griffin. “Do you know him? He… he really cared about her, didn’t he?” There was a strange feeling in her chest as she read his words, the way he spoke about Aedrianna with such warmth and longing.

Then, in a complete tonal shift, she grabbed another letter and dramatically flicked it toward Griffin. “And this guy?” Her lips quirked into a smirk as she tapped the signature at the bottom. “Julius Atreus Astolgia, the handsome Red Devil?”

She plucked up one of the absurdly smug portraits attached and held it up for Griffin to see. “Please tell me you’ve met him. He sounds ridiculous.”

Despite the teasing, there was a quiet undercurrent of melancholy as she flipped through the letters. Each one spoke of friendships, connections, a life she wasn’t a part of—but one that people still wanted to keep alive.

She exhaled softly, setting them aside, her fingers curling slightly against the fabric of her dress.

“If I’m going to be here… living in this world, in this body… I want to at least try to honor that.” Her voice was thoughtful, almost hesitant, as if she were still working through the thought herself. “Not just Aedrianna’s memory, but the connections she made. The people who cared about her. I don’t want to pretend to be someone I’m not… but I don’t want to throw all of that away either.”

She let out a slow breath, then laughed lightly, shaking her head. “Ugh, listen to me rambling.”

Looking up at Griffin again, her expression softened into something more determined. “Sorry for talking too much, Aurora. I promise, I can focus now. Teach me everything you’ve got.”

“I understand it completely. When I first arrived, my dreams were very fragmented, reminders of my past life—a life I no longer live. Like hanging around my parents' shop and playing with my little brother. That I assume was a good year or so before my diagnosis. He was still shorter than I was, and we behaved more carefreely. Not the behavior I recall from myself struggling with an illness and a family struggling to pay for the treatment,” Griffin told her.

Sympathy was in his voice. He knew, understood he’d been there with weird dreams. He did question. “That sounds odd… perhaps a message? A warning from those above?”

When Kota was mentioned he laughed. “Yeah! Me and Kota know each other—Aedrianna had met him first though, me and him met on a Kuridan adventurers guild trip to investigate an island, and then after that, we hung out with friends. And made newer friends and acquaintances in Ryke. Then after that to the fae see border to help aid in a war. He’s a lot like me and you. He was also from earth, he got hit by a trunk but unlike us he was reborn as a baby and grew up in this world…then naturally he died again fighting bugs and handling explosives because what else is better? I..sent him a lecture. He was brought back to life but the news still scared mec. Anyway I think you’d like him.” Griffin explains grabbing a letter he had sent out to Kota and handed it to Hikari.

“Rios? Erm. Sort of. Not much of a history there, I met him the same time I met Aedrianna. The difference was me and him didn’t talk to each other much. I’m sure he doesn’t remember me at all quite frankly.”

Then confusion flashed across Griffins face. “Julius astro-wha now?” His eyes looked at the protraits.

“Must be from Roran or Widersia. But no I never met him. I’ll admit he looks a little attractive I suppose. He probably is ridiculous though. And potentially full of himself. I wanna know what on earth he sent you though. “ he mentioned with a laugh.

Her next words caught Griffin’s attention. And he nodded. “I understand that, waking up my memories were scattered. In this body with no known connections clearly abandoned—yet it was obviously made for something. Destined for something. The cases here are different. It is reasonable to want to honor those things that was left behind. And you don’t need to pretend to be someone you aren’t either. There is a balance. It may take time find it, but you will find it and it will be in a way that makes you comfortable and a way that makes you feel like you are honoring the one who was once there. I’m sure if you two had been able to meet you would’ve been great friends.”

Griffin pats her shoulder. “Oh please. I’m a dead teenager remember. I believe if one of us rambles the most it’s gonna be me, besides rambling isn’t a bad thing. Even in battle chitter chatter can provide a distraction. Like making one off comments then throwing your strongest spell to catch the enemy off their guard! In other words— don’t worry about it. If you apologize for ‘rambling’ again I’ll purposefully give you a run for your money in the rambling department with no Apologies!”

He thinks. “Mhm…Maybe it might be best to discuss what this world is like? I could teach you magic first, but the world also hangs in the balance of magic—that and understanding the various nations might be a beneficial first so in the case you cross borders you know what to expect?”
