`` Today, love, this nation is ours. For now, and forever,'' I told Maya, gripping her hand and smiling with excitement. 
 
 She jumped up and down, giggling with glee, and drew Arakh from its sheath. Blue streaks of light danced across rocks as the sun gleamed off her majestic sapphire sword. Without even waiting for me, she'd taken off. 
 
 I sighed with exasperation, leaping from the cliffside with Shisu slicing the wind behind me in a blur of jade and gold. *She's always so god damned hasty. * 
 
 We cut through flesh and fur as the Verküth army swarmed us pointlessly. They were but putty before our might and blades, and we were sculptors. 
 
 `` Ah, that was too easy,'' Maya groaned, covered in thick black blood. 
 
 `` Well, you designed this one. Do n't complain.'' 
 
 She sneered at me and walked toward the slain King's broken convoy, retrieving a golden scroll from his body. We looked to the south, where the sun was setting over a sea of bodies and blackness. 
 
 `` Tomorrow, I wo n't go easy on you like this,'' I told her with a sly smile. `` I've got a few ideas that do n't involve the measly Verküth and a basic slashing mission. We did n't earn this scroll.'' 
 
 `` Come on- it's fun once in a while, is n't it?'' She laughed and walked up to me, kissing me goodnight. Or, well, good morning, I suppose.

 I awoke in my bed to the sound of an alarm's screech and stretched. *This world is so boring and plain by comparison. Fuck work. * 
 
 Even worse, I'd dreamt too long, leaving me poorly rested for the day. 
 
 Lunch break could n't come fast enough for me. I went over to Harry's for a club sandwich and coffee, like I usually do, when I saw her. We locked eyes from across the room and immediately recognized each other. There was no doubt in my mind. 
 
 `` Hey, Dianne! Long time no see,'' I joked- we worked in the same department. `` You look pretty tired. Long night of partying?'' I winked. 
 
 `` Very funny,'' she replied, rolling her eyes. `` But in a sense, something like that. Pretty intense dreams and stuff. Now get back to work, lazy.'' 
 
 I looked at her quizzically. *I wonder if... * 
 
 *Nah. Do n't be silly. * 
 
 I dragged about the rest of my day as I always do, swinging my pen around in daydream, wishing for nightfall.
