The Hero of Orion

Darkness envelops you, warm and comfortable, accompanied by distant voices.

"Push harder madam! We are almost there"

There’s a strange pushing sensation. You feel blinded by a sudden bright light, followed by a sharp pain, then the distinct sound of a baby crying. More voices follow, announcing your birth.

You open your eyes later to blurry shapes, the unsettling sight of floating objects (which you later realize are mobile toys), and the confusion of not being able to move or speak properly. A young maid's face appears above you, then you are lifted into the arms of a beautiful woman. Your new mother's gentle voice and touch bring a strange sense of calm. You see your reflection – a baby with platinum blonde hair and green eyes – and the shocking realization hits: you've been reborn as an infant in the world of 'The Hero of Orion'. The sheer absurdity and shock cause you to pass out.
