How long is it already...?

I found myself lying on the ground with everyone

I got up however I feel an ache in my head

I turn around, I found no decayed bodies lying in the ground other than us

Was it a dream?

I couldn't remember everything and it's already morning

I heard Severus groans, he opens his eyes and gaze at me

"You're up?" He questions

"I am, your highness." I respond

"What happen?"

"I genuinely have no idea, your highness, however I'm convinced that we physically fought those people few hours ago."

I thought for a second

The Nervberg Village exiled 6700 ago, correct?

Which means, there's a possibility that everything we've been through ever since we got here is only an illusion made by a black magic user

But it's odd, we still wore the same garments and clothes

I'm confused and frustrated in the same time

"There you are..."

Both Severus and I heard a voice

"Reveal yourself." Severus ordered

"I'm afraid I cannot. However, I'm certain that both of you are puzzled about what has happened.The truth is, everything you saw was just an illusion." The voice stated

I knew it

"But, everything that happens is real. It's a memory, all of it. That was the last moment of the tribe before they were slaughtered in their own land by the royals."

We are speechless

"Brutal, indeed." The voice continues

"Why did you make us go through this!?" Severus asks

"I never did such thing, your highness."

"What do you mean?" I asks

"I'm not the one responsible for all of this." It replies

"Then who?" I asks again but the voice didn't responds

"It disappeared..." Severus uttered

"What happened?" Stella asks as Theodore and Gabriel groans in pain

"Y'all finally awake." I stated "Get up, we're leaving soon."

"But, where's the bodies we defeated?" Gabriel asks

"They're long gone, Gabriel." I respond

"Then, shall we rest first? I really want to go to bed.." Stella said and walked away

But seconds later she didn't move

"What's wrong?" Theodore asks

"Is that.... supposed to be our hut?" She ask as she pointed the abandoned and old house not so far from us

"What the heck?" Gabriel muttered

So it turns out everything that voice said was true.

Everything we saw and experience was an exact event of what happened 6700 years ago

But who's responsible for all of this though?
