[Waking up from being asleep for a year is much like coming out of a coma. It took Mary a few days to feel truly herself again, but now she's back and well and truly confused about what happened to her.
The last that she remembered, she had finally been able to smash the damn harp in her dreams and get some rest from the depression that constantly haunted her for weeks. One night she drifted off and the next thing she knew it was May... a year later. Obviously, much has happened and she wonders why she had to be the one to be put into a magical sleep and miss everything.
She experienced a dream, or what felt like a dream, during her sleep - that she was back at Downton and that she had interacted with her family members, even lived her life there for a year while her body was asleep here. The details of what happened are clear, though remembering it feels like watching everything happen through a veil over her face.
On the locket she appears rested, to say the least. She's bathed, washed her hair, and styled it so that she looks presentable. But there's confusion and a bit of fear in her eyes as she tries to get answers.]
Have I truly been asleep for a year? I fear this could be quite a long conversation, but what have I missed? And was I the only one afforded this privilege of missing out on a year of my life?

[Mary's staying with her, even though she's pretty sure she knows where this is going.]

[Even if she would generally always have faith in Charming. In them finding each other. But this isn't about her. It's about Mary.]
And even I wasn't asleep a whole year. But others would be helping keep you up to date, I suppose. Which must help at least a little in readjusting.

Miss White, you look different from the drawings in the books that I read as a child, though I suppose that those authors did not meet you.
[She's smiling.] I am Lady Mary Crawley. And I did not feel as though I were in a coffin when I was asleep, just as though I were walking around looking through a glass.

[She's used to this, anyway. Yet somehow it still almost always gets some sort of reaction or joke.]
Lady Mary. I'm not sure if that's better or worse than while I was actually asleep under the curse. Either way, that must be...disconcerting at the least.
video;
I should say so. But at least I did not sleep for 28 years. I imagine that's completely horrible.

[It's. Complicated. But it had taken that long for Mulan and Phillip to track down Aurora and wake her through the Sleeping Curse and the Dark Curse having left a certain area of the Forest lands untouched.]
Yes. I think the worst part is the nightmares that linger even after you wake.
