As the aftereffect of the medication, Xanthus was supposed to be in deep slumber. But he found himself standing in the middle of a dark tunnel, where bare minimal light was missing. Finding himself in this absurd situation not only startled him, but he deliberately started averting his gaze around in order to find any clue to get out of the tunnel.
Strangely he closed his eyes and tried to apply his supernatural senses to find out which was the end of the tunnel. But even his powers weren't working which made him strangely pissed about being stuck in that kind of situation.
The thing that baffled him the most was that Randall would always usually accompany him everywhere whenever he stepped outside the royal castle out of his own concern. But in that absurd place, he didn't find any trace of Randall near or even far from him, nor he could contemplate why was he stuck in that kind of place. In fact, he wasn't even carrying his sword and stood still completely defenseless.
