Knight had to stop himself from recoiling when the man suddenly touched him. He didn't have an aversion to touch, but it was disturbing having anyone other than Mage get so close to him when he was stuck like this. Still, he kept his cool - he quelled a little bit of the shaking, and looked away from to Mage so he could stare up at the man instead.
"I-It was a spell, the last time," he finally said. He didn't want to say too much about the spell - about how he had forgotten who he was, about the years knowing he wasn't right, wasn't human and about how the trigger for his return to normal was being betrayed by someone he cared about. "It's not like this. It was different. Last time I...I..."
He stopped, thought it over and then simply shook his head.
"It was different-"
"Follow your soul," a voice whispered on the wind once more.
Knight tensed, and he could feel Mage tense beside him as well. "That was the voice that spoke when I woke up," Mage said. "Right before I started panicking. But what can it mean?"
"It means follow your soul," the voice answered.
Mage and Knight immediately broke apart and wildly looked around, trying to find the speaker. But no matter where they looked, they couldn't find whoever was talking to them.
"Who are you?" Mage called out.
The voice was silent.
"Why won't you show yourself?" Knight asked.
Nothing.
And then, suddenly, another response. "Just follow your soul," the voice insisted. "I can't say anymore - I've probably done too much already. I know I'm not supposed to meddle in things like this, but I wasn't going to let you all die after they separated your souls from your-"
The mysterious voice suddenly gave a startled, worried little cry and fell silent.
