As the door slid open a man in a white coat stepped in, "Oh! You're awake. That's excellent news. I was worried the damage to your nervous system would've kept you in a coma. You're quite tenacious."
Rue commented, "You have no idea."
Akiol tossed her a warning glance before asking, "How bad is it?"
"Master Terwin desired to speak to you first about the situation. He'll inform you of the situation. As for your visitor. . . she hasn't left your side."
"I've been told. Where is Terwin now?"
"I'll inform him right away."
"Ah, could you tell him to bring a VR headset?"
"Pardon?"
"There's something I have to handle. . . make it two actually."
"I will relay the message."
The doctor swiftly left the room to fulfill his new task of being a messenger. Rue watched the door close before asking, "Headset?"
"The illusion I spoke of. Perhaps you should try it."
"Am I to assist with your search for this Horizon's Origin?"
