The cool breeze gently brushed against Anna's face, slowly waking her from her deep slumber.
Her eyelids trembled ever so slightly, and she gradually opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry, but it soon focused.
The first thing she saw was the starry night sky and the twin moons, Selene and Luna, shining a ghostly light below.
She was momentarily confused, wondering what had happened to her.

She grimaced in pain, her hand subconsciously drawn to her forehead. As she massaged her temples, she slowly sat up.
Looking around, she found that she was still on the giant boulder by the pond. To her right, a familiar figure was seated, looking at her with a relieved smile.
