When I woke up, I was back in the chamber where I originally found myself in before all that illusory shit, the Egg now gone and cracks strewn about every surface. The door also seemed to have blown off also.
I got up, feeling surprisingly tired, yet when I checked, I still had like seventy-five percent stamina and a little over eighty percent of my mana. So why was I feeling so lethargic? My [SP] had dropped by about five percent, so it couldn't be that either.
I was about to leave when all of a sudden, I felt my heart begin to pound and burn up like it had been lit ablaze.
"AACCKK!!" I keeled over and clutched a hand over my chest near where my heart was.
Suddenly I threw up and stained the floor red with blood. I choked on the air and my own blood as my heart burned both literally and figuratively.
I managed to turn and land on my side, spewing up another mouthful of blood. I could feel something happening within my heart. I don't know what, but it clearly wasn't nice.
