Cain's eyes flickered open...
What greeted him, was the barren sky of the fragmented lands. Grunting, he tried to move but realized that he couldn't. He barely attempted, but his forehead was already covered in sweat.
With a sigh, he stopped struggling and observed his surroundings. There was nothing noteworthy around him. All he could see were grassy plains and a few trees here and there.

The pressing question he had to ask himself was, 'Where am I?' or 'How did I get here?'. Unfortunately, there was no one around to answer these questions.
What made him the most uncomfortable, was that he couldn't sense his mana at all. It was as though his body had been sealed. He couldn't move, and he couldn't feel any energy around or within him, which meant he couldn't activate any skills or spells.
He couldn't even feel the {Dark Soul}. This bothered him a lot...
