Awakening Third Circle

Stationed over his body, wagging her hips like a pup, Talia tilted her head. "Master…" She gave his cheek a poke. "Master…. Master, you got to wake up."

Talia practically jumped to her feet. "N-N-Nia! You scared me! This Spirit Domain or Manipulation thing is crazy. Being able to hide oneself is scary."

"I get that, but what are you doing?" 

"Trying to wake master up!" Talia mused, hopping down from the bed. She glided over to her sister. "Master needs to play with Talia."

"... You know you're not a child, right?"
