"It's one thing to be<em>told</em>you'll be coming back, and another to really see it."<br/><br/>After what feels like weeks of meeting with his companions, his children, and just about anyone who knew him and could be reached, all except, curiously, Amaterasu herself (though he would be told that she was fine, just in a dangerous position the prevented her from reaching him), he would feel a distinct tugging sensation at his 'self', pulling him 'up' and out of the dream world he had gotten so comfortable in. Assuming he followed that tug, the dream world faded away, and the heavy weight of<em>real</em>settled over him. Things had weight, and sensation and all of his senses worked... well, sort of. He felt heavily sedated, which was probably a good thing, given that he could feel a<em>lot</em>of pain, even through the sedation, which meant that he was in a very large amount of pain, though he'd also know it was fading and healing, slowly.<br/><br/>He was lying in a bed, and could feel potent healing energy, both external, and internal, working to restore him, but he was healed enough to return to consciousness, at least. A voice murmurs, "Awake? Good. Don't try to move, or use any power; if you can hear me, blink a few times."
