Lesser up his eyes, pain, was the first thing he felt. Sitting up, arms around his stomach. Was it hunger he felt? Standing up, moving to where they had their food. Looking at every one asleep. 'How come no one is standing guard?'. Shaking his head. He picked up one of the fruits. Taking it to his mouth, crushing it, the fluids entering his mouth. He became confused after eating. 'Where is the test?'. He felt his stomach still in pain. A voice slowly creeped along him.
"Fool."
It was soft and quiet, but was still alarming to Lesser. He turned around, still seeing everyone still sleeping, and the torch standing still, its warmth not there. 'Why is it not dancing?'. He summoned his memories, but the sparks never appeared. They were already in his hands. More confusing, he felt something was not right. The voice slowly and now annoyingly spoke.
"Fool."
He walked to the entrance. His mind is going fast over everything. But his body stopped before getting to the entrance. HIs mind confused, 'Why did my body?', but it was then that he saw the roots and vines. 'Why is there–', before he could think further, flying at him at the roots. They miss him. Falling down and landing on Lee. Lee did not move, and Lesser noticed that.
"····· ······ ····?"
He was trying to speak in anger, but failing. 'Dammit!' He avoided the root's attacks on him. He picks up the torch and throws it at the roots. It landed on them, and the flame began to spread. The roots began to move, they were in pain. Getting some room to think, he summoned his runes.

'Dammit!'
Before Lesser could think up a plan, the root flew through their pain and hit Lesser. Piercing through his chest.
He woke up.
Sitting up, Lesser felt pain in his stomach and chest. 'Dammit!' He stood up, looking around seeing his cohort all asleep.
"···· ·· ··· ····… !!!"
'Why is my voice?'
He felt it now, a slowly creeping feeling. Walked to Lee and shocked him, but it did nothing. Lesser releases. The Torch was not dancing, his test was gone, and his memorise was gone. He summoned them, but no spark appeared, but they were there in his hand.
He summoned his runes.

'[Dream Feed], that must be it.'
But he closed it immediately and ran out of the cave. Getting out, he ran down the hill. The root and vines had no time to trap or attack him.
He looked around. The lake had a hill on it with a tree, The battlefield was now covered with trees, and the. Lesser did not look up.
'Why is it all familiar, no, I already did this.'
He ran to the trees, they did not move, but they were nightmare creatures. He ran up to one and slammed his [Stalwart Chisel] into it. Killing it.
[You have slain an Awakened Beast: Dream Tree Spawn.]
[You have received a Memory: LOveLy LeAf?]
[Your Memory had been destroyed.]
'What?!'
Lesser never felt the memory entering him or leaving him. But it did not stop him. Piercing another one, killing it.
[You have slain an Awakened Beast: Dream Tree Spawn.]
[You have received a Memory: DrEaMy LeAf?]
[Your Memory had been destroyed.]
Again. The feeling never was there now, but it was not correct. He summoned his runes in the middle of his attack.

He looted how it was not destroyed, but had its name deleted. He tries to summon one of them. It did appear, as a leaf with a pink color, then in the next second it was turned to sparks. He looked at his runes again.

Memories: [Hard Mallet], [Light Robe?!], [Stalwart Chisel], [Blessing of Avenli], [Tears of Home], [???], [???].
'Huh?!'
But it was not the time to think. As a root pierce his back. The voice spoke again, no two voices spoke.
"Finally awake, are we?"
"How are you awake?"
