Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 81: Conected

A gust of wind blew a lock of Senja's hair, the wind felt so cold and dry that it caused her to shiver. She still felt very weak, but now she had enough strength to open her eyes.

Her long eyelashes fluttered for a moment before her eyes finally open. At first the scene before her was blurry, she blinked a couple times to readjust her eyes.

She knew Lieutenant Utara was in the room guarding her, but he wasn't aware yet that Senja was awake. Therefore, with a lot of struggle, a faint grunt escaped from her dry lips. This small grunt drew Utara's attention from the documents in his hands and he looked over to the girl that was on the bed.

He hastily walked towards her bedside and saw her disorientated look.

"Senja! You are awake," He cried out. His dark eyes beamed with relief, "Call the others!" He shouted to the person guarding the door and they quickly ran to carry the massage.

He wiped Senja's hair away from her face and gave her some water, Senja was very thankful of his thoughtfulness as the water ran down her dry throat, "Senja, you scared us," Utara whined pitifully.

"How long" Senja asked. She grunted when she heard her own hoarse voice.

Utara knew what she meant even if she didn't finish her words, "It's been 3 days since you passed out that night."

Senja's eyes swept around her room, sunrays were shiningthrough the slightly opened door, which told her that it was already in the afternoon.

Not long after that,Senja could hear the sound of footsteps rushing towards her room.The first person who walked through the door was Elder Dam, with knitted brows and fury in his eyes.

"Senja, child you are awake?" His old body slumped down at the side of Senja's bed. He held Senja's hand carefully.

Due to lack of strength she just managed to nod her head slightly.

"Quick! Check on her," He gave an order to the person who was wearing a bright blue gown. She knew he was a military doctor because she met him once when she went to look for Yoda.

He made a quick examination on her. Afterwards his young face looked relieved. He smiledat Elder Dam and said, "She is alright now.There is no need to be worried. I will give you a prescription, in the meantime I will make her some nourishment soup."

He then talked about some other things with Elder Dam before he excused himself.

Aside from Utara and Elder Dam standing near her bed, there was Xiao Tianyou standing not too far.

"How do you feel now?" Elder Dam'sanxiousness could be heard clearly in his voice.

"I am fine grandfather," Of course, she was fine, after all she wasn't the one that was attacked that night. She only collapsed due to overexerting her energy in subduing the man that was about to kill a shadow guard, "What happened to him?" Senja asked worriedly.

"You don't need to think about that matter, all you have to do now is rest. Let grandfather handled it," Elder Dam said with concern.

Senja was too weak to argue with him, but she needed to know. That was why she struggled to say a few more words, "I am alright now grandfather, but I need to know what happened."

Elder Dam's brows knitted and he looked like he wanted to rebuke his granddaughter's words but before he could say anything, Xiao Tianyou stepped forward stood in front of Senja to explain the situation.

"That man is a soldier who ran away from the northern military's camp a week ago, we are still investigating what actually happened and what his motives were but it seems as though he can't remember anything aside from maples forest," His husky voice echoed around thequiet room.

Senja likedhearing his voice no, no, no, thisisn'tthe time for that!

"Maples forest?" This word caught Senja'sattention the most. It was the forest she saw in her vision! Was that man linked with her clue?
