When Rex closed his eyes in the domain, the light from it vanished.
He returned to himself as he always did after experiencing Lustia's domain: immediately and wholly, without any transitional state between being unconscious and fully awake.
The room around him was his own at the Silver Rest. The light streaming through the window was at the perfect angle and quality for midday, not morning, indicating that he had been unconscious for much longer than he had intended.
He was familiar with the ceiling of his room. The mattress beneath him was a comfort he had grown accustomed to.
The familiar aroma of the inn's kitchen wafted up through the floor, signaling it was noon.
He rubbed his eyes and sat up, attempting to shake off the lingering effects of sleep. The sounds of laughter and the clinking of dishes from below reminded him that life was moving on, patiently waiting for him to rejoin it.
"Yeah... my infinite regeneration really did wonders for my stamina, it seems."
