You awake to find yourself lying on the floor in an ancient castle. The first thing you see is a sword lying beside you.
"Where am I?"
Puzzled! You look around to find a man lying on the ground suited in a beautifully garnished armor. Before long...
I should go back. I can probably meet up with Roy on the way.
One step at a time, I slowly walk back the way I just came. After walking for a bit, I see someone's shadow in the darkness.
"Roy! Thank goodness."
As I run towards the shadow, I notice that it is not just one person's shadow.
Is that... the monster from before?
(B)
I need to trust Roy and keep going. I just know he'll catch up with me soon.
I uplift my spirits and continue walking forward. After walking for a while, I hear a rumbling like sound. As I look ahead, I see a puppet made of stone coming my way.
As I turn around and desperately try to run away, I find myself astonished at what awaits before me. Even in the other direction, there was a monster closing in on me.
What am I going to do? If I don't do something quickly, I'm going to be killed!
Goosebumps cover my body as 'death' closes in.
"I... I don't want to die!"
"Haha. Looks like you're having a rough time. Phoenix, need some help?"
A carefree voice that feels almost out of place radiates down from above.

As I look up, I see a man with burgundy hair floating above me. Why is it that everyone I run into is able to use magic like this? Right when that pops into my head, I notice that his body is transparent and that I can see everything behind him.
"What... What are you?!"
"Haha! What are you getting so surprised about now?"
"As you know, I am the amazing Jordan, presently kicking it as a ghost."
"Jordan... Wait, ghost? You're dead?"
Jordan, after hearing my odd reaction, tightens his lips.
"Phoenix, are you sure you have time to be acting like this?"
"You can really die if you keep joking at a time like this."
"Just like me."
"Huh?"
Listening to the way he talks, it sounds like he knows me from somewhere.
But I still can't remember a thing.
" I'm sorry ."
" I can't remember who you are."
Jordan blinks at me and astonishment.
"Whaaat? What are you trying to say?"
" I've lost all my memories."
After telling him that, Jordan snickers to himself.
" Haha… I get it now."
" That's hilarious."
" It's not funny!"
" Anyways, we have to run way!"
"Hmm… yeah, whatever. Come on. Follow me."
"Come on. Over here."
"Uh, okay!"
Jordan leaves passageway and goes out the window. As I stick myself at the window and take a look around I see that there is a place where I can land. I pull up the hell on my dress in an ungraceful manner and jump out the window.
"We should be safe now."
the place that Jordan took me was a small room that appeared as if it had not been used in ages. well trying to catch my breath, I smile at Jordan.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
"You 'owe' me one."
"So what happened? Do you really not remember who I am?"
"Yeah."
"Hmm... It seems like today's not your lucky day."
"But seeing that you know my name, I can guess that you knew me before I lost my memories?"
