Steps to the ladder, what if I slip away?


The stars shined in her eyes, glistening her breath in the night filled with mysterious mist and a cold breeze as her gaze was fixated on the real portrait in front of her. Her vision blurred, in a fraction of seconds, and turned into a broken ladder, unusable to anyone who had dreamt of going up. That the true essence of realms all blended into a single knot, was left undone.

"I can do this," her lips spoke, "I will undo it and fix everything."

A knot, was simple in appearance but too complicated in soul for even the string itself that was buried in the weight, of itself. Even pointed needles or sharp judgements were to fail in doing so.

But the ladder was broken.

And it needed to be fixed.

Though the magic shop was just opened to her knocks, the exit was closed to her back.
