'...Mm...?'
I looked past Eskart. I swore I saw something over his shoulder. No! I did! I see Jenk, wandering in the distance with Shennu and Wolfboy. They all look so opaque.
[ESKART] "Friends of yours?"
'Quite. Hey! Friends! Over here!' I said, hopping up and waving my hands.
[JENK] "Ah! Look, there! There they are!"
Finally, we rendezvous as the dream moved around us now as pleasantly as soft waters of a slow flowing river, compared to the rancor of how we saw it when Ginnungagap persisted. My comrades approached me, and we were all united in the Dream Realm.
[JENK] "Took us long enough. Ah, but that's to be expected when fighting Terror. It is the most potent of the Dark One's psychological agents he attacks us with."
[ESKART] "My, my... Jenk the Cultivator. It has been a long time."
[JENK] "A long time indeed, Eskart. I assumed to one day visit Belkinsire again, I just never imagined it'd be inside your dreams! Haha!"
[ESKART] "Hmph. You know, that groundskeeper is still miffed about the car your curses caused to crash."
[JENK] "Well, I imagine he won't be soon taking shortcuts in mowing Miss Metillede's lawn anymore, the jungle it was thanks to his laziness! Hahahaha! Although, I have eased on my curses."
[ESKART] "Ah. A surprise but a welcome one. Oh, and you are... Shennu, the Divine Dragoness."
[SHENNU] "Well met, Magic God."
[ESKART] "Interesting. I have never seen you before in the flesh. And this one with you would be none other than the Animal Kingdom's guardian."
[WOLFBOY] "Wolfboy! At your service! Yip! Yap! S-Say, can you teach me how to conjure steaks whenever I want them...?"
[ESKART] "It's certainly possible."
[WOLFBOY] "Really?!" He gasped.
We all shared a laugh.
[ESKART] "So... Muna has united you all. Astounding. No god has ever had this much success with such a thing before. Once Woldor had formed his pantheon in opposition to the Trinity, all had simply gone by the sidelines as neutral and wayfarers whilst the Trinity traded blows with the Khanate..."
'We are a united front now, the ones seeking to change the world. For the better. We won't accept the kind of future HEUS showed us, or the Great Rebirth the Trinity plots.'
[ESKART] "Understandably. All a Belkinsir wants is to live their lives as humes, and I want no different for them. If by helping you all, I can win them this future and change those ahead, then so be it. I am ready to give my all."
'I'm just glad that we destroyed that thing... phew...' I said, before looking around.
'It seems your students are beginning to awaken.'
[ESKART] "The Ginnungagap was the linchpin keeping them trapped in this nightmare. With it gone I am able to break their comas and restore them to the waking world, as though nothing has happened. Once I return to being awake, I will be able to restore order and peace to Belkinsire's streets. I know there has been some turmoil, the thing taunted me with it since I fell into my wallowing."
