"My sweet child...you're finally here..." said a voice.
This was Night's first time appearing here, it was the same place Pythia and Noel could see, and just like them, fear took over Night, he couldn't help shut his eyes.
He was someone who was afraid of the night and darkness, as someone who was fighting against an irrational fear, getting exposed to such an extreme version of the fear-provoking stimulus was naturally a bad move.
"No no no please don't be afraid... I have no intention of hurting you.." the voice sounded scared.
Obviously, the voice belonged to Nyx, a sharp contrast to the attitude she showed Pythia and Noel.
She was genuinely worried Night would hate her, so she wanted to know what was wrong.
"What's wrong... please tell me, perhaps I can help," Nyx said.
Night wasn't particularly afraid of any being but rather he was afraid of the environment he currently was in.
"N-night.. please.. Light.." he pleaded.
Barely understanding what Night said, Nyx snapped her fingers and the entire room turned into one that was illuminated. At first, she was confused, she assumed Night was afraid of her but after looking at him fight monsters, she knew Night's personality more than any other NPC so she ruled out the possibility of him being afraid of her. As soon as he pleaded with her to change the room to one that had light she was confused but she immediately did so.
His breathing was extremely erratic and his heart rate was dangerously high, he could even hear the notifications of the system that asked him if he wanted to log out, had it raised any higher the force log-out program would kick him out.
He was covered in sweat and was now on his knees with a hand to his heart, he could feel himself calm down.
As he looked up, he saw a familiar face, it was the same woman he had seen during the character selection. He couldn't forget her no matter what, her pale skin with pitch-black hair falling gently over her temples and reaching her waist.
He could see her face better now, she was truly ethereal, calling her heavenly would be an insult, her jet-black eyes with white stars running around the border of her iris seemed perfect on her. She had a sharp nose that more than complemented her seraphic pink lips.
The second she smiled Night's heart melted, he wasn't attracted to her but rather he was moved by her pure smile.
"It seems you've calmed down," she said.
She then walked towards her throne and seated herself as she waited for Night to get used to the surroundings.
Night could saw her walking back to a throne and decided to look around to see where he was.
It looked like he was in a forest but the trees weren't too thick or too thin, they were perfect, the sunlight that passed through the trees seemed to be the perfect amount. The sound of a waterfall caught his attention, as he looked back to see a few wild animals drinking water. When he looked at the lady in front of him, he noticed that been the throne seemed to be made of trees.
"Now that you've calmed down, I am Nyx, Primordial Goddess of the night," she said with a calming smile as she sat down, one leg on top of the other and one hand to support her chin.
"I'm ... well...Night," he founded it a little weird.
"Don't worry, I won't harm you, I only wish to talk and we don't have too much time, you're indeed a peculiar one, child. You go by the name Night and yet it seems you're afraid of the night? and now you're stuck with the Goddess of the night" she said with a smile.
"Hah you have no idea, your curse did make things easier for me but it also made it a whole lot harder but nevertheless I'm grateful." He said as he bowed slightly while cupping his fist.
"Hmmm, anyway, I'm here to make things interesting once again, I can't tell you too much for now but I shall make it easier on you," she said before snapping her fingers once again.

"Huh? what? the? f-"
"MY LORD" Shade rushed towards Night.
"My LORD...My Lord...? "
"Oh Shade, what's wrong?"
"Its...nothing My lord..." Shade once again was too taken aback by Night's appearance, the rain and the new aura Night exhibited left a stronger impression on Shade.
[Bond with subject 'Shade' deepens]
Night ignored the notification this time as he looked for Mocha and his group, according to Shade, Night's been gone for more than a day and so they decided to leave.
Just as Night expected he received a friend request from all of them which he gladly accepted.
*????? ????? ?????*
The small beast that sat on Night, zapped towards him once again.
