Daguse found himself near the Monk training facility, a little confused about why he was there. Part of the magic of the cookies were that they had the dreams, but did not remember how or why, just that they were there. A older monk, one of Daguse's teachers, approached him from the school, hailing him in greeting. After explaining what was going on, and escorting Daguse inside, he shows him his mother.
Daguse has not seen his mother since his father was murdered in Daguse's childhood home. After the murder, his mother was nowhere to be seen or heard from afterwards. It was assumed that she was either dead, or on the run, though at the time they could find no proof as to who had murdered his father. Daguse had not heard, nor was he ultimately concerned, with what had happened with the case after the many years of dead ends. To find now that his mother was here, and on trial was shocking enough, let alone that he was to be judge, jury, and.. you got it, possibly executioner as well.
