3:00 am.

That's what you would've expected to see as soon as you slowly opened your eyes, but instead of your alarm clock...

...You saw the depths of Nihility staring at you, IX perhaps? You were mesmerized in the beauty of the vast void, why would Nihility look so beautiful? Isn't it supposed to be meaningless and empty?

She doesn't explain why she's in your bed, staring at you... How long has this been going on for, actually?

Instead, she blinks a little, like an awkward kitten, obviously a bit exhausted as well. Though, unlike with a cat, petting an Emanator wouldn't exactly be wise.
