Darkness.
Nothingness.
Purgatory.
Sophie found herself gently floating in a void-like space with little control over her body.
There was nothing as far as the eye could see and time seemed to be sped up as the minutes turned to hours then days and then years.
"What happened just now?" Sophie frowned as she tried to remember what could have brought her to this strange place.
"Arghhhhh!" she shrieked.
Sophie could not help but clutch her head in pain as wave after wave of memories hit her all at once.
She saw herself attacking the children to rip the parasites out of their bodies and then consume the fleshy biomass.
She could still recall the warm flow of qi in her body after being promoted to the upper levels of the qi spirit stage that had felt very comfortable.
Sophie could also remember trying to turn around to tell Cleo that they needed to go after the Blackguards to get the stone tablet.
