Nixie had never looked up at anything. Ever. She always had that absent-minded look that seemed to stare out into nothingness.
Yet now, Reed could see a hint of clarity in her eyes as she gazed upon the gigantic statue of Cthulhu.
"Nixie…my daughter…she's…"
Welling up with emotions, Reed couldn't quite bring out the words to describe his joy upon seeing a hint of his daughter coming back to normal.
"She's reacting to the Cthulhu," Juniper muttered. "It makes sense. This entire thing looks like it was ripped straight out from her subconscious void. For the first time in her life, she is feeling as if she belongs in the real world!"
Juniper looked at Michael, surprised at his ingenuity. Just like he said, he found a way to help stimulate Nixie's heart! He brought her subconsciousness into reality, tempting her to finally face the world!
"This can help her," she said. "Close proximity with the Cthulhu will allow her to slowly warm up to the world."
