Phenomia

The lullaby field

Oh my... those words came too her mind first. As soon as she had walked trough the water portal (and walked out of it completely dry!) she saw a beautiful valley with lots of green bushes and colour full fields, it was like... she was in one of her own books! She looked around to see where she was now. She was standing on gray rocks and behind her was a little stream where she'd probably walked out of, since it was a water portal. "Well, what do you think?" Chelsea asked, she turned around to see her, she was so in trance from the beauty of this world, that she'd completely forgotten that Chelsea was there too. "I-it's wonderful..." April stammered, Chelsea smiled "glad you like it, now lets go down, they might have found a house for you already!" "Wait, i-im gonna have my own house?" April asked "yes! Exciting isn't it?" Chelsea replied "Yeah, I guess..." April smiled slightly "now let's go!"

They walked down over the rocks and into the Forrest, on the go, April watched her eyes out. It was so pretty, al the tree's had this shimmering look on their leaves, even some leaves had different colours, like red-pink and blue-purple. And the flowers where something she'd never seen before, they where al differently shaped and colourd than in the human world some where gold, or even black with a white stem and leaves. the grass was so fresh, you could see the dew drops on every single sprit. And than there was the smell from the forrest itself... it smelled like wood and rose water, and lemon grass. She breathed in the fresh air sent from the beautiful woods around her, and everytime she did, she felt free like a bird. A smile spread across her face and the pale colour of her face that she had had because of the fear she was in just a moment ago, made place for a tinted face and rosy cheeks. She took her key out of her pocket, the gems had now turned into an emerald green shade. Chelsea looked around and smiled "I see you're feeling calm, that's nice." April looked up and simply replied with a smile "well, we've arrived at the place I wanted to take you, so just follow me." They where in a glade surrounded by seven trees, in the middle of it was this little golden garden house, there where little star drawings on the walls, it looked beautiful. She saw Chelsea walk towards it and she followed her, just when she was about to step inside the house, Chelsea hold her back. "You need to wait outside for a bit, I call you when you can come in." "Okay..." she waited and looked up to the sky, the clouds where almost the only thing looking the same as in the human world. She let out a sigh, this is my new beginning, I'm going to start al over... this time in ta world where I belong.

"April, you can come in!" She heard a female voice shout but it wasn't Chelsea's. Slowly she opened the golden door and walked over the footstep. She let out a gasp, how? The room she had stepped in was huge, but from outside it looked just like a little garden house. She looked around the room, on the tall Walls where the same star drawings as on the outside and the floor was made out of pure gold. It reflected al the light and gave it a pretty glow. The only thing inside was a small fountain-pool and a little chair that was standing in front of it carrying an old lady, next to her stood Chelsea. "Hello there, you must be April?" The lady asked friendly "Pleas, step closer my dear" as April stepped closer towards the women she saw her having a silver glow over her wrinkled face and arms, the rest of her body was covered in a white cloths dress. Her eyes had a weird colourless shade and her gray hair was braided backwards and rolled into a bun on the back of her neck. she wore a weird crown thing on her head that was made out of wooden twigs. Even tough she was probably very old, she looked quite beautiful. April stopped in front of the fountain and looked the woman in the eyes, for a moment she had a curious look in her strange eyes but it disappeared and immediately made place for a warm and peaceful look. "Welcome April, my name is Nana." The woman spoke, her voice was clear but still sounded old lady like. "I'm the oldest spirit of Phemomia. I heard you're new here?" April nodded "I understood from Miss Chelsea you're looking for a place to live in and I might have found something for you." She stretched her arm out infront of her so it was now above the fountain. "Ostendite mihi volo ostendere" the women spoke the words out slowly, it was a weird language April swore she'd heard before. Than there was a weird sound comming from the fountain and the watter started boiling. It slowly began revealing shapes of green and blue, wich later turned into grass and a sky, and soon there was a little stone cottage in it too. the whole image was now finished and it looked beautiful, the little cottage stood along the waterside and bihind it was a huge flowerfield. "Is that... my new home?" April asked bewildered. "It sure is, Chelsea will lead you there, you're going to like it a lot" the lady said and she believed every single word. "If you have any questions you can come to me, I'll help you with anything you need." "Thanks madame, we're hitting the road again" Chelsea said as she placed both her hands on her chest and made a little flexion, the woman copied her movement and than Chelsea leaded April to the door. "Wow" April spoke as soon as the door had closed behind her. "That was so weird, how could that house be so big on the inside? and than that thing with the water... amazing!" Chelsea laughed at her sudden bewilderment. "Well, the house is actually just an illusion, it's a spell all spirits can cause" she said "and the water was one of her rituals, to look in another place." "Oh Wow... I still can't believe this is all real!" April said as they start heading back into the forrest. "So..." April asked after walking for more than fifteen minutes "where are we going exactly?" "Oh, yeah I forgot to tell you" Chelsea replied "i'm taking you to the lullaby field "
