The vision shattered once again and Mira find herself waking up and gasping.
She looked around and noticed the room was dark.
It was still in the middle of the night and the candle had burned out.
Beside her was Ray, who was still asleep.
His breathing was a bit uneven and his face seemed tense even in his sleep.
Mira sat up slowly and tears streamed down her cheeks.
She hadn't even realized she was crying or had been crying in her sleep.
Mira touched her cheeks and felt the tears but she couldn't stop it now because she had seen everything about Ray.
In fact, she understood everything now.
He had died alone in a dark room and had somehow come back to the past to change his fate.
Mira looked at Ray's face and noticed the same face she'd seen in the vision.
It was similar but different at the same time because Ray's face was now younger and softer than the one who had suffered five years of abuse by the elite warrior's party.
Everything made sense now.
