"What— "
"Something happened!" Ava barged inside the Shaman's office. "I was trying to practice what you taught me and I somehow… I think I just went to Scotland!"
The old man calmly closed the book that he was reading. "Astral projection. How long?"
"I— Astral projection?"
"How long did it take you to enter into the astral plane?"
"I don't know— hours? I think two hours. I lost track of time."
"That was quick. For a first timer."
"Astral projection is a spell. Isn't it?"
"It is a part of the forbidden spell that could cost the caster their life. But dream walkers don't have those limitations. We can freely roam around the astral plane. To make you that you were safe in that facility, I did astral projection and communicated through your dreams. That's why you heard me but you weren't able to respond. It was because I wasn't simply dream walking. I was in the astral plane and since you couldn't do astral projection, you couldn't respond."
