---- 235.
1ONLY LEFT FOR A SECOND SIGRID Through the animals eyes, I scanned the vastness of the forest, searching for a safe refugeand soon enough, I found one.
Nestled in the mountains, far from the mansion, possibly even outside their lands, I spotted a dark hole, half-hidden in the hillside.
Ilanded softly at the entrance, shifting back into my human form, a fire spell glowing in my hands to light my way and fend off any threats.
The cold drafts made my hair flutter as I glanced toward the horizon, at the night sky.
For some reason, | felt restless and nervous; still, I took the risk of venturing into this wild cave, hoping I wouldnt stumble upon any unpleasant surprises.
Just in case, I placed a defensive spell at the entrance.
At first, I walked through a narrow passage that gradually widened like a funnel.
The damp, earthy smell welcomed me, but it didnt feel like an animals den.
I noticed two tunnels stretching deeper into the unknown, but what I needed to do could be done right here, in this small chamber.
---- Isat on the ground, ina dry spot against the cold wall, and rummaged through my corset and the ornament in my hair.
Soon, I had all the magical pieces laid out in front of me, ready to be assembled.
The light from the small floating fireball hovered above my head, illuminating my work Inless than fifteen minutes, it was finally ready! I drew the sleep runes around the small flower-shaped artifact, my fingers trembling slightly.

Seconds, hours, daysI didnt know.
Time moved differently here, but I kept searching and searching, calling and calling, to no avail.
"Please, someone, please, Zarek, sleep and find me, sleep and find me." ---- I begged, collapsing to my knees, my hands covering my face.
Beneath me was a deep abyss, and tears began to stream down my cheeks.
This artifact wouldnt help me contact my family.
sigrid? Suddenly, a voice made my heart skip a beat.
Tspun around quickly, afraid I was imagining things.
Uncle, is that you? Its you! I sprang up, running toward him and hugging him around the waist, crying, breaking down after holding it all in for so long.
calm down, little troublemaker, calm down, he said, running his hand over my head, though his touch felt stiff, and he seemed a bit lost.
What are we doing here? Sigrid, what did you do now, girl? He pulled back, gripping my shoulders, his brow furrowed.
