Not sure what she had just heard, Raiina looked up at the young man, her eyesight blurred, and unclear, as she watched his handsome face swim in and out of focus. "W-what?" She asked, her voice slurring a little from exhaustion, as she struggled to comprehend what the young man meant. "You are going to create a weapon-the most powerful the world has ever seen, it will not only have the power to destroy but create, to rebuild, to heal." He repeated, his hand still extended.

Raiina blinked slowly as the man's words reached her ears, and she frowned slightly as she tried to decipher their meaning. She looked up into his strangely golden eyes, feeling herself being drawn down into them, into him, into his heart, his soul- "Who are you?" She asked, unable to suppress a gasp as she stared into those mesmerizing eyes. He smiled, a heart melting grin, showing his perfect white teeth, "My name is Valader."

Extending her arm slowly to grasp his extended hand, Raiina curled her own pale fingers around his tanned hand, and struggled to her feet, her whole body shaking slightly with exertion. He looked upon her with kind eyes, steadying her as she shook, "You should rest, here, let me show you to your room-"

Raiina took a shaky step, before the room swam before her eyes and the last thing she saw, was the marble floor rushing toward her.

Raiina opened her eyes slowly, even her eyelids felt heavy, as if they were reluctant to move. The room was spacious, but not overly large, with smooth beige wall, and a dark marble floor. She was lying in a bed, quite low to the floor, upon a soft mattress, covered with blue sheets, one of which was draped over her clothed form. The room was bare apart from the bed, and a large desk situated on the adjacent wall, opposite the small wooden door. There were no windows in the room, which suggested to Raiina that this was an internal room, away from the outer walls. Her shoes had been placed neatly next to the bed, and from the looks of things they had been cleaned, for the white was now bright, the material, soft restored to its former glory.

She wiggled her toes and fingers, flexing her muscles, trying to determine if anything was broken or damaged, but apart from an almost paralyzing stiffness in her legs, arms and back, she seemed fine, even her sun burn seemed to have gone. Struggling into a sitting position, she brushed her hair out of her face, before there came a gentle knock at the door, shortly followed by the door being opened slowly, a handsome face appearing around the edge.

"Ah, you're awake at last!" Valader opened the door further before taking a few long strides to the bed, where he stood, smiling faintly a small distance from the seated Raiina. "Though I suppose given what you've been through it's not surprising, I'd need to rest for two days if I'd trekked through that desert the same as you." His words were light hearted, his tone carefree, but his voice was quiet and controlled, an intriguing sound which Raiina found herself fascinated by.

"Two days?" She asked, hardly believing she could have slept for that long, "And anyway, where is this place? How come there's a building here of all places? In the middle of an uninhabited world?"

Valader gave a small smile, shaking his head slightly, "So inquisitive, though I guess you do need to find out sooner or later. You'll have to wait till you meet the others before I can explain, though I'll give you a few answers to think about. This place has always been here, since the worlds began, and nothing, even this world is what it seems. Now, how about breakfast? But I suggest you ch-"

"What? Wait!" Raiina cut him off, her eyes bright with curiosity, "What do you mean this place has always been here, someone had to build it. And what do you mean 'others'?"

"All of your questions, well most of them, I will answer later, after breakfast, and as for the others, there are three more people, who, like you are fated to create the Keyblade." Valader turned walking toward the door, before once again he was halted by Raiina's words.

"You used that word again 'Keyblade' what is it? And what do you mean by fated?" Her head was cocked to one side, her face set in a determined expression as she kept up her continual stream of questions.

Valader reached the door, and turned the polished handle before acknowledging Raiina's questions, "Like I said before, I'll answer your questions at breakfast. After you get changed into something clean come to the dining room, down the hall to your right, and the first door on the left. Some clean clothes are on the floor at the end of your bed."

He closed the door quickly, leaving a confused, slightly mutinous Raiina behind him.
