Ori then wakes up in his bed, he looks around and sees Ku who is still sleeping, he realizes that Naru was gone, he thought she went out to get something for breakfast, then he starts walking towards the door, when he left the house he felt the warmth of the morning sun, even in the morning he could feel the weather heating up, he knew today would be a very hot day, so to start the day he stretches out and picks up one of the few remaining fruits he takes a bite of Fruit and starts walking towards the bridge that he and Naru built a few years ago, when approaching he can see Gumo who was fixing some supports on the small bridge that led to the rest of the swallows' nest, then he greets her:
Ori: hello Gumo
Gumo: hello Ori
Ori: What are you doing there?
Gumo: Naru said that some of these wooden stakes were a little loose, and you? you almost never wake up first than Ku - Gumo says while tying a rope in two trunks that were a little loose
Ori: nothing important, just some bad dreams - Ori says in a kind of discouraged Ton.
Gumo knew there was something very bad torments Ori, but she decided not to comment on it.
Gumo: so ok, if u said everything is fine
Then they were silent for a few seconds, then Ori says:
Ori: So... did you see mommy around here?
Gumo: Yes, she went to the other side, I think she's not that far
Ori: Thank you, gumo
Gumo beckons to Ori who had just crossed the bridge, it was already a while after walking, Ori had already finished his fruit so he looks around in search of Naru, entering the forest a little farther he starts to see Naru, who was next to a pile of fruits, Ori then starts to walk faster almost running, Naru can hear her footsteps on the ground, so as soon as he approaches she says:
Naru: Hello my Baby
Ori: Hi mommy
Naru: my baby, what do you do so early?
Ori's expression changes from happy to nervous
Ori: just some bad dreams, that's all
Naru POV
this explains why he slept on my lap at night, he has had a lot of nightmares in those times, no matter how much he insists on saying they are dreams,I know it's not just normal dreams or nightmares.
Naru: my baby, don't worry, it's just a few dreams, no need to worry. Whenever you are having a bad dream, you can sleep with me.
Ori responds with a smile, then he looks at the pile of fruits
Ori: Oow, how did you manage to get so many fruits
Naru: one of those new nibel residents, he was around here picking up some fruit so I asked him I could only help
Ori POV
who would say that moki would help so much, even if she was only here for a week they have evolved a lot.even if they need my help with some things, since kwolok is no longer here To help them.
Ori remembered very well, the promise he made to kwolok before he died, remembering the fight and the last words of kwolok ori felt the sadness consuming him once again, Naru also noticed that Ori had suddenly become sad, so she decided to try to make him happy:
*Naru catches Ori, surprising the little spirit so she puts him on her back, and the two begin to return home, while Naru took a large part of the pile in his hands*
Ori he was a little surprised by Naru's sudden action, but the fright goes away and gives way to happiness, so he starts to remembers the good times he had with Naru, when they walked through the swallows' nests, when they built that bridge, so I feel guilty that Ori felt has been fading as they approve of their home, even though it has been a while since he woke up he can see when they got home, that Ku was already awake she was talking with gumo, so when she realized that Ori and Naru were approaching she waves her right wing to the two who were arriving, Gumo who was facing Ku and behind the bridge turned and also waved, so when they got home they said hello to Ku and Gumo who helped to save the fruits, so they sat down each took two or three fruits then started eating, Ori was the first to finish so he says goodbye to his family and runs off to the Spiritual Tree, everyone was a little surprised by Ori's sudden departure but they knew he he had duties to perform, as it had been a week since the events in Niwen so Ori was in charge of helping the new residents of Nibel to readapt in this new environment, it was not a difficult task the Moki know how to take care of themselves usually they just ask "is this place safe?" "is this fruit poisonous?" "can we go there? " and "Are there monsters around here?" Ori always tried to resolve the doubts and questions of the Moki, while Ori walked to the area of the village of Moki, he feels a strong pain in his chest he stops walking he squirms a little with the pain, but it only lasted a few seconds "What was this?" he asks himself "it felt like my light had dimmed for a moment" Ori was a little bewildered by the sudden pain he had felt, so he started walking slowly the rest of the way so he hears a noise coming from the forest he thinks that it is only an animal or someone exploring the region,so he hears the same noise again but with a snarling at the end, Ori fearfully enters the attacking position of preparing for whatever was coming, then he hears footsteps accompanied by the noises and growls, Ori felt that there was something familiar in these growls so the footsteps get closer the noises get louder, he hears what seems to be paws running towards him, so Ori summons his spiritual hammer and it prepares to fight, the bushes started to move indicating that there was something there,then something starts to emerge from behind the bushes
Ori: What heck- Ori was silent, horrified by the vision he had
emerging from the bushes, it was the howl but he was different, he was black like the night his eyes were white his face was black with white details, on his back come out what it looked like smoke or black flame with white particles, Ori was confused and full of fear he was dizzy with the situation "HOW CAN HE BE ALIVE?!" "HOW DID HE GET HERE?!" "And WHY IS HE HERE?" those were the questions that were filling Ori's mind, while Ori tried to reason that situation, Howl tried to bite Ori, but he managed to dodge.
Ori POV :
I almost got hit, I have to focus on my enemy now the questions are for later.
Ori tells himself, then howl prepares for another attack Ori then uses the spiritual cut, he jumps towards the Howl so when Ori was about to strike he simply crossed Howl how if he doesn't exist as if he was an illusion, after Ori crossed him he was very confused and ended up falling to the ground,he then thinks:
Ori POV:
What just happened, I just passed it- he thenb they then question: This is real?
