《Fae》Chapter 3: Embodiment

I can feel.
The barest of senses. A mere glimpse of corporeity.
I can feel.
But not move. Can’t tell hot from cold, hurt from whole. But I know there is something. The start of a body.
I can feel.
The whisper. Shifting. It’s too small to put into words yet, suggestions more than descriptions. Changes so minute they barely deserve a passing mention.
I can feel.
I’m alive.
The void is so distant now. It almost feels like a lie. If I had the privilege to think, I believe I would have assumed it to be my fate.
Eternal emptiness.
Not even darkness. Just a nothingness so overwhelming that it dissolved me in apathy.
There is no light, yet. Or a speck of color beyond the ones I dream about.
But there is hope.
I can’t remember the last time I felt its brightness.

There is a certain restaurant in the first basement level of a multi-tenant building in one corner of a shopping street near the office district.

This “Restaurant to Another World” and its food hold an exotic charm to these highly diverse customers. This is a story of the heartwarming, once-in-a-lifetime encounters between our reality and another world, between the restaurant’s customers and its owner, and the food shared among them all.
