xv. Particle Ocean

It was this day that Caria woke up from her dream.

"Hello..." said a voice.

Caria looked around and saw that her mother was watching her. After a swift embrace, the two began to discuss their trials that they had been through. Madeline, Caria's mother, looked pale. When Caria asked what was wrong, Madeline simply shook her head.

"It's been a while since it happened, but your father is still trapped in Zeffon..."

Caria hadn't heard of her father Ross in a long time. She began to use her psychic powers to try to reveal his location, but to no avail.

"It's no use," said Madeline. "I've tried myself. The only people who could see into Zeffon nowadays are your aunt and grandmother. Your grandfather Kerragan is in the other room. He's remaining quiet on the subject. I suspect he knows something."

"How would you know?"

"He blocks my attempts to converse and read his mind. He wasn't born a psychic, but he sure has a strong will."

"I'll talk to him," said Caria.

She gave her mother a hug and went to find her grandfather. The old man was in a building in Ratayu known as the "observatory", her mind told her. Within minutes, Caria was knocking on its door.

"Come in," said a voice.

Opening the door, Caria found her grandfather Kerragan studying something in his hands. It looked like a glass box with green sparkling fluid in it. "Hello, Caria. Did you just wake up from your dream?"

"I did," said Caria. "I saw a temple like the old ones in Unkardia. You know, the Silver Forest Temple? It was completely enveloped in trees."

"I see."

"Kerragan, mom says you know something about dad."

"I do. He's trapped in the Chaoslands. Do you remember Dotajmari? The old ruined kingdom? He's there, but something's taken place since we left. Dränsilane, your great uncle, isn't pleased with being trapped in that dimension. He's trying to break free and invade Ratayu. I know your mother was trying to save him from the Darko in his soul, so I didn't tell her in fear that she'd go and confront Dränsilane. She cannot understand him the way he is now."

"What do you mean by she cannot 'understand' him?"
