Upon finishing his words, he could see that his brother appeared to have a look of confusion about him. Had he said something wrong? He briefly thought back to his words, but he simply couldn't figure out what he could have said to elicit such a physical response from Jiao. It wasn't until his brother's response that he began to realize what the problem truly was. Apparently Jiao felt as if they'd already been briefed on what their task would be today, even mentioning that they were supposed to be venturing into the mountains to recover what he deemed to be a "rare herb". Now, instead of Jiao being the one that was confused, Jian was now utterly bewildered.
How could they know what they were here to do if they hadn't yet spoken to their employer? All they'd been notified of was that the doctor needed help, but they hadn't yet been told what exactly they were supposed to be doing...right? The longer Jian began to question, the more he began to feel his memories and thoughts were now a muddled, hazy mess. Before Jian could speak out against his brother's recollection, he soon found himself having flashes of memories and recollections that he couldn't exactly place.
In these memories, he could see himself traversing away from Oak towards the mountains in which his brother had described only moments ago. He'd made use of his "Whisper" spell in order to communicate with the flora and fauna that he encountered on the way; each plant giving him the directions he needed to make it to his destination and find the rare herb he'd been sent out to acquire. After reaching the mountain, he was now tasked with traversing the steep cliffs. He could remember how intense of a climb it was, and how much stress it managed to put on his body. After enduring such an ordeal, he'd managed to reach the herb, place it in his pocket, and return to Oak. With his return, he'd made his way to the shop of Dr. Stephan Mabuz before waiting on his brother to arrive.
He couldn't understand how he'd just now begun to recollect all of these memories, and to him, they merely came off as a dream - at least until he reached into his pocket and pulled out the herb they would have been tasked with collecting. A look of shock appeared on Jian's face as he examined the herb and then looked at his brother. Could this have been after-effects from the opium he'd experimented with the previous day? Maybe that was the explanation behind all of this.
"....I guess we've completed our task?"Jian wasn't sure what to say to his brother, as he was sure he now came off as insane. Either way, "they'd" retrieved the herb, and the mission was indeed completed. The only task left now was to turn in the herb to the doctor.
