Uhah’s fading heartbeat echoed louder now, each beat a grim reminder of the fleeting moments I had left.
It was a race against time, and I was on the losing end.
Just when I was about to succumb to despair, a hand reached out and grabbed mine, pulling with a force that defied the chaos around us.
Grace.
Her eyes, usually calm and composed, now reflected a raw determination mixed with fear.
“We have to get out now!” she shouted over the cacophony, pulling me with her.
I nodded, letting her take the lead.
The plans in my grip were our lifeline, our mission, but at that moment, all I could think of was escaping the impending void.
We ran hand in hand, dodging fragmented memories and evading the whirlwinds that tried to suck us in.
It felt like a never-ending maze with no way out.
And then, just as suddenly as it had all begun, everything went still.
A profound silence enveloped us.
We were on the edge, the precipice between the dreamworld and reality.
Grace turned to face me, her grip still firm on my hand.
With a final determined tug, she yanked us both out of the abyss.
We landed in a heap, back in the physical world.
It took a moment to register our surroundings.
Uhah’s breathing was almost nonexistent now, but his face bore an expression of peace.
Grace and I exchanged a look of mutual relief.
We had made it.
I unrolled the plans in my hand, the tangible evidence of our ordeal and a testament to our combined strength.

GRACE
The abrupt jolt into the dreamworld was disorienting, like being tugged through a vast whirlwind and then suddenly, and unexpectedly, spat out onto the other side.
The lush fabric of the dream weaved around us, but the atmosphere was tinged with melancholy.
We watched, hearts heavy, as the spectral form of Uhah began to fade.
His once vibrant dream presence was slowly being consumed by the ethereal mist.
A pang of sorrow hit me.
In the tangible world, Uhah had taken his final breath, and here, in the dreamworld, his essence was disappearing, leaving a void in its wake.
Tix, ever the optimist and problem-solver, quickly spread the plans on the dreamworld’s ground.
