As the dust settles Chrom's eyes open to a sky of eternal twilight. Holding his head as a sudden feeling of vertigo takes over him as he struggles to his knees. He begins searching frantically for his love, Sumia, he sees her a few paces away still on the ground. He rushes to her, almost falling over one or two steps. He gets to his knees to awaken her, he lightly shakes her shoulders, "Sumia, are you alright darling? Please get up...p-please" fearing the worst after her not waking up for the first few moments he is more than relieved when she wakes up to greet him. He embraces her and tells her to sit and rest for now, he needs to get a handle on the situation.

He hears in the distance from Robin, "Chrom, this feels familiar doesn't it? I mean this is how we met the first time. But it is strange, how did we get here and where are we here? Also, this place seems rather unnatural too."

As he replies, "Yes, I noticed this as well." He walks over to Robin to help her up, "Yes, now you see it from the other side," he chuckles almost emptily "Lets wake up our hopefully new friend shall we?" He walks with Robin to the stranger on the floor as he asks Robin, "What do you suppose we do?" As almost in answer to Chrom's question, the stranger's eyes flutter open and he groans holding his head. Chrom smiles and then says, "I see you are awake now, there are better places to take a nap then on the ground y'know? Give me your hand" As he reaches his hand out to the dark-clothed anomaly. He grabs Chrom's hand as he gets picked off the ground.

"Uuuugh," the new man holds his back in pain, "You..you lot don't look like you're from around here" he says to Chrom and Robin

"Well you're right about one thing friend, I'm Chrom, and who may you be?"

"I-I'm Aedan, well, I guess welcome to this land of darkness" as he looks to Robin and the rest of the group. "Exactly, who are you people?"

"As I said, I'm Chrom, the leader of the Shepards, a group of protectors of my homeland, Ylisse, and this is..." as he gestures to Robin
