Mei Wei looked at the large globe of crystal in his hands. He was intrigued by this magical item as he rubbed on the smooth surface of it.
At this moment, he was sitting on Ivory, and he and his Aman were on their way back to Kashya. Ivory seemed to like Mei Wei a lot, that's why he was allowing Mei Wei to take his reins into his hands. Aman was sitting in front of him. His beloved seemed tired as his back was resting on Mei Wei's broad chest. He was narrating the things that happened to him to Mei Wei.
"Baboei, are you sure that it has been almost three hours since I left?"
Aman was a little confused at this. When he asked, Mei Wei said that he was only gone for three or so hours. It took almost an hour for him to complete the last rites of the vetala. So it means he was in his illusion for only two hours. But Aman clearly remembered that he spent two months in that cocoon of love.
