Well, this is an interesting development.

The last time you saw Rei, she was comatose, with no signs of waking up anytime soon. And then... out of nowhere, she appears. Like a bolt of lightning, sword in hand, smirk on face, healthy and ready to take on any challenge. What changed?

Rei's been standing before you, resting her hand atop the hilt of her sword for a while now, expecting some kind of answer from the group. Instead, you're all busy staring at her, slack-jawed and in shock to even see her standing on her own two feet.

“Rei... you're awake...” Akira mutters, her eyes wide, her face twisted into an expression that's a mix of shock and pure joy.

“Of course I am!” Rei laughs. “You really think Class 3 could keep me down for long. I-WHOA!”

She cries out in shock as she notices Taka standing at the back of the group. She cautiously raises her sword, pointing it at him, before charging at him with intense speed.

“Rei, wait! He's with-” you begin, but you're unable to finish as she's already engaged him in combat. Taka raises his great-sword in order to defend himself, parrying a few of her blows, but Rei's too fast for him. It's amazing, it's like she's stored up so much energy in the time she was out of action, and now she's even stronger and faster than she was before coming out of her comatose state. Not even Taka can keep up with her swift movements.

“Rei! Stop!” Akira exclaims. As Rei and Taka cross blades, Akira sprints towards her friend and tackles her to the ground. Though due to the circumstances, the tackle seems to be more of a very aggressive hug.

“Akira, what are you doing?!” Rei exclaims, struggling under her best friend's weight. “Taka's right there!”

“I know... he's on our side,” Akira explains.

“He's... what?” Rei's eyes widen in confusion, as Akira raises her back onto her feet. “What are you talking about? We were just fighting him! And where's Yamato?”

You shake your head solemnly. She has no idea, does she? “Rei, Yamato's dead,” you explain, approaching her. “You... you've been in a coma for three weeks. A lot has changed.”

Rei stares blankly, glancing between you, Akira, Taka and the Darkworld around her. “Okay... you might want to fill me in, Ryoji.”

Back at camp, you sit Rei down and explain the current situation to her, as she munches down on some candy Akira had to spare. “So, let me get this straight...” Rei remarks, trying hard to grasp what she's missed. “There's this cult... and they worship this place, so their leader made a deal with a Super Darkworlder so that we would be stuck here for as long as he lived?”

“That's the long and short of it,” you nod.

Rei sits crossed legged on the ground, scratching the back of her head. “Man, this never would have happened if I was awake! Those Order freaks would never have gotten the drop on you with me around!”

Seeing how Rei moved earlier, you think that might actually be the case.

“So, what else did I miss?” Rei asks, curious.

“Well... there was a festival in town, a nice fireworks display... the school held a dance... that's pretty much it,” you reply.

Soon, Saki approaches after receiving the run-down on what happened from Akio. She hugs Akira, before smiling as she addresses Rei. “Good to see you back! We were all so worried about you!”

Rei picks herself of the ground and offers a handshake to Saki. “You didn't need to be! It would take a lot more than that to keep me down forever! Pretty sure I'm even tougher than you these days, Miss Kobashi!” she says with a smirk.

Saki laughs as she accepts the handshake. “It looks like all your training really did pay off!” she replies. “Looks like I have a lot of catching up to do!”

“That reminds me,” Rei says, turning her head towards you. “This means it's been at least three weeks since our last training session, Ryoji!” She pokes you in the chest. “That just won't do at all! As soon as we're out of here, we're going for a run!”

“Sounds great! I can't wait!” Saki says, inviting herself with nervous laughter. “I... have to check on the camps defences. Welcome back, Rei!”

Saki gives and awkward waves as she rushes towards Akemi. Oh boy... you just realised there's something else Rei missed. She has no idea you and Saki are together... in fact, she fell into her coma before knowing that you were even interested in Saki. This could be a pain to explain...

>Tell Rei about you and Saki.
>It's not that important for her to know that right now. It can wait until later.

Above the crypt lies an old, forgotten monastery. The Korathi make camp there, Kirari doing her best to heal Dorje’s and your wounds, but with no water in sight you know Kejeral knows they cannot stay for long. All around in every direction is a vista of expansive desert, a sea of dry rocks and sand. As the sun sets, the three Korathi head southwest, following once again the specter of the four-legged creature which leaves no tracks in the sand. It is discovered that Kirari can summon flames with a form of magic, though she still has no recollection of any other such spells.

The desert almost kills them that night. The winds suddenly whip up, and a great sandstorm brews on the horizon, threatening to overtake the party. The sand, covered in tiny, bone-white shards of razor-sharp stone, is like a sea of knives as the wind carries them, stripping the flesh from your skin. Just in time, the group finds cover, piling in on top of each other behind a rocky outcropping to protect them from the bulk of the flaying winds.

The storm lasts for a couple of hours, then dies as quickly as it arrived. Dorje, already wounded, looks worse as his mound festers and now is reopened. All three Korathi are all dehydrating and starving. Kejeral helps the others to their feet, and once again sets out southwest, towards the distant mountains.

As fortune (or some other guiding force) would have it, an oasis is tucked up in the shadow of the cliffs, surrounded by green shrubs, stubby trees, and even some sparse game. The Korathi recover themselves, slaying meat and resting through the day. A group of sandcats tries to bring down a stallion on the other side of the pond, but Kejeral and Kirari intervene, slaying one of the predators and saving the horse.

The stallion is saddled, and marked with paints that indicate it has an owner who is nowhere to be found. After much coaxing and Kirari’s surprisingly soothing touch, the animal is convinced to trust you. Before leaving the oasis, the Korathi stumble upon a statue of a woman hidden away in an alcove most obviously crafted as a shrine. She has strikingly beautiful features, and as they see her, the Korathi recall a name: ARUSET, and a legend: THE THEFT OF LAUGHTER. Their memories, then, are not gone forever – as they explore the world, perhaps their past will return to them.

The moment of revelation is cut short as a small group of creatures – Gnolls – walks into the oasis with hunting dogs and spears. They make for the Korathi camp and the stallion they have saved, but Kejeral and Kirari intervene, challenging them openly and boldly. To everyone’s relief, the Gnolls back down and respect the Korathi claim, apparently not willing to fight over it. Through gesturing, Kejeral manages a trade – the corpse of the sandcat in exchange for their guidance to civilization.

The Gnolls take the three Korathi that night up into the cliffs to a small keep garrisoned by perhaps twenty of their number. There are also 2 prisoners – slaves, by every indication. One of them, Royt, is a young man and merchant from a city he calls “NAJJAT”, and the other a young woman wearing native clothing and the same style of warpaint as the stallion the group found by the oasis. The mount turns out to be hers, and loyally gallops to her side to be reunited with her.

Kirari notices that the girl – Kiyya – speaks a language similar in some respects to your own native tongue. Her warpaint, as well, shares some resemblance to your tattoos. The girl is the best connection you have to this world, and the three agree to try to buy her freedom from the Gnollish captors and meet her people, the IMASHET.

The party has little to trade, though, and Kirari and Kejeral set out to hunt the other two oasis sandcats for bounty to use as currency in the exchange. The hunt is brutal, and the creatures nearly fell both tribal warriors and destroy several of your weapons. With the narrow victory, however, the pair return to the Gnollish keep and ransom the hostages.

They are grateful for the party’s intervention, and Kiyya agrees to lead her saviors deeper into the desert. Royt is less enthused, but has no choice but to follow. Along the way, Kejeral is struck by a hideous nightmare of the sky shattering, stars falling to the earth, the sands turning to a sea of coiling serpents, and the inky-black image of the Laughing Dog watching him silently. It turns out that all three Korathi have had this same dream. What meaning it has, though, is still unknown to any of them.

Kiyya leads the Korathi and Royt from one hidden cache of water to the next, small wells dug by her people to aid crossing the vast dry distance. As all of them progress further, the sands pile higher and higher and the rocks are worn smoother and smoother, until the entire landscape is just an ocean of sand piled high into great mountain ranges. To her horror, Kiyya leads the group to one of the Imashet havens to discover that in the years she has been gone, the sands have consumed and buried it deep below her. There is no water, and no shelter. The group has no choice, and has to continue the trek to the next haven during the day under the oppressive heat of the sun. They don’t make it.

Another storm, far more furious than the last, kicks up on the horizon and washes over the sandy mountains with a hurricane’s intensity, turning the very ground into a swirling tempest of razors. They run, and once again, as the darkness encircles, the four-legged silhouette appears and guides Kejeral to a nearby cove, concealed in an embankment of sand. They all squeeze into the shelter to find a narrow flight of stone steps leading down into the bowels of the earth. One by one, the Korathi, Royt, and Kiyya, escape the storm’s fury...but not the girl’s horse. The animal is too wide to fit through the narrow door, and collapses as the flesh is stripped from its body outside. Kiyya, overcome with grief, takes a stone in hand and puts the poor creature out of its misery.

After long, delirious hours, the storm abates. The party finds itself buried in the shelter, the entrance now washed over by the churned sands. With Kirari’s summoned flame as the only light, Kejeral leads the Korathi down the steps into the caverns beneath.

He and Kirari descend into a chasm to find water at the bottom, saving the group from dehydration. They are not alone, however. Serpentine creatures stir in the darkness, babbling nonsense in human words. As one slithers close enough to see, Kejeral is horrified to recognize an almost humanlike face on one of the larger serpents. He and Kirari escape, but only just.

4/4

That brings us to the current chapter:

>Do nothing. It’ll be too suspicious with Aoi right there.

You decide not to do anything too rash right now and close the door behind you quietly. After a short moment, you hear Aoi whisper to herself,

“I should start making breakfast...”

Gently, she lifts the other girl’s head from her lap and slips out from under. Grabbing a pillow, she slides it under where her lap used to be and gently lowers her back down. She leaves the room, shutting the door behind her without any noise.

>Nudge her awake and tell her we have to talk.
>Find the diary too leave it in front of her, and then wake her up.
>Now’s not the time to ruin our chances, do nothing.
>Write-in.

You awake to the sound of drills and men marching about. Immediately as you open your eyes your body winces in pain and you can feel the wounds in your stomach and the other areas you were cut. Your armor and dress shirt has been taken off and a quick glance around indicates you are in a tent. Your body is bandaged and you can see spots of red where your wounds lie. Your gaze goes to a person sitting a few feet away from your bed. A woman with her back turned to you and working something with her hands on a table. It seems to me midway when you take a glance outside of your tent. Your head feels woozy.

“Uhhh I don’t know why I’m here or why this is happening but could either of you help me or explain what the hell is going on here? I got teleported to this place after touching some weird magic orb thing.”
