It was several moments before Klavier finally began to stir. Even beyond the realm of consciousness, he could still feel the effects of the sedatives lingering in his system, leaving his head cloudy and heavy-feeling. There was a small sound of protest under his breath, like a kid reluctant to get up for school in the morning, before he blinked awake into a bright light overhead.
