    Summary

    The first thing that comes to you is pain.

    For some unknown length of time, it is the only thing you register. You assume, however, that time passes because the pain is spreading. It starts at what you later realize is the base of your head, traveling from there further along your body. It's as though something is inside you, spreading to every part of your form, mapping it out. The eyes, nose, mouth, to make a face. The neck, the ribs, the spine underneath to make a torso. With every additional millimeter you recognize more parts of your body. All at once aching and burning as though some parasite is hollowing you out. The feeling it leaves behind is like coals hot enough to burn in the emptiness.

    Or: You wake without memory at Castle Dimitrescu to a soulmate who avoids your presence and strangers who act like they know you. Something is off here, even beyond your amnesia.
