The dream may be over, but the questions it left behind are far more troubling.

We woke on slabs in a place that felt familiar and frightening. We were surrounded by bodies that did not survive whatever was done to us. A man of faith claims he rescued us, though I am not yet convinced salvation was ever part of the plan.

The others seem anxious. I need rest but can't quiet my mind. Something was placed inside us, and until I understand what it is, sleep will not come easily.
