Sometimes, the unknown path leads us to the well known world.
I went up and started looking at the rooms one by one. Even tho I was looking at these grand rooms my mind was fixed in that one room which grandpa had mentioned not to go. Which room is that?Eventually I reached the end of the hall. My eyes wide opened to see a closed door. The mysteriously tempting door covered with dust.
I took my first step closer to the door. It was like as if the door is attracting me towards it, as if the door has been waiting for me, so tempting. I could hear my grandfather's warning ringing inside my head. But my mind was so lost focusing on the old wooden door. And just like that, without realising, my hands almost went to the door knob. I swallowed my thick salaiva and slowly turned the door knob. The door slightly parted making creaky sound which made my heart skip a beat.
I went in slowly as my eyes gazed the dusty room in awe. The sunlight through the closed window was the only source of light. I could hear my heart thumping to see the paintings covered in dust hanging on the walls of the room.
I carefully took further steps seeing the dust on the floor. I paused right before the dressing table, which was half covered by a white cloth, when I noticed a pile of letters on the table. I picked up one of the letter dusting it.
What are these? Hanja? It must be a very old letter. I tried to read the sentences more carefully but all I could read was "Queen Jeong Hui"
Queen? Who is she?And without thinking I pulled down the white cloth and dusted it. My eyes were stunned to see a beautiful old antique mirror which looked beautiful even tho it was covered in dust. I wiped a part of the mirror using the same cloth and my eyes met my own reflection. I gasped to see myself in the mirror. My heart suddenly skipped a beat and started aching. I fell on the ground my eyes shut tightly and my hands covering my ears at the loud sound.
I felt numb and couldn't move an inch. I shut my eyes more tight in fear. The weight in my chest felt heavier. I could hear people talk and scream. What are they talking about? With whom are the talking? What happened? Why are they all screaming? What is this feeling? WHAT?

"Blood is shedding all over the country, the king's end has come. And the spell is bound to break only by the chosen"
"W-WHAT"
I woke up panicking and breathing heavily"Lady Hui? You're finally awake"
I panicked more to see the unknown place I was in. "What is this?" I muttered under my breath
"Lady Hui? Please drink some water" the girl who seems to be probably around my age gave me a cup of water
"Who.. are you? What is this place?" I gazed my eyes around the room trembling in fear. "Where am I?" I crawled out of the bed almost falling down. "HANBOK?" I screamed when I noticed my dress had changed too.
"Lady Hui? Are you fine?" The girl asked me in a worried tone
"Who are you? No.. Where am I? Noo.. What happened? No. Where's grandpa?"
I couldn't think straight my mind was in a mess. That girl went to call someone and I hope it's grandpa. I looked around the room observing more carefully. The room seems to be familiar. But why? Is this a dream?
"Lady Hui? How do you feel?" A bold masculine voice asked me with concern
When I turned to see who it is I exhaled in relief seeing a familiar face. "Brother Jung where are we?" I cried seeing my brother's face in this unknown place
"Lady Hui" his voice grew sadder "You are safe. Do not worry" He assured
"What happened? Where am I?"
"You fell into the river and almost died. You have been unconscious for more than an hour"
"I.. fell.. into the river?"
What in the hell? I clearly remember I was in my grandparents house.
"But why are you calling me Lady Hui? Brother! I'm your sister Y/n. Brother what happened?"
"Lady Hui your mistaken. Do you not remember me?"
"You... you.. look like my brother" I cried helplessly in fear hoping he would swirl his arms around me and tell 'pabo I'm here why are you crying' but he didn't. He's not my brother.
"But you.. your not him. Your not my brother" My brother doesn't stand like a stone after seeing me cry. Anger and fear surrounded me making me feel helpless.
"where.. am I?"
"Lady Hui you didn't forget your own bedroom did you?"
My Bed room? What? NO.
"This is not my bedroom.. and who.. who are you both? Why am I here?"
I started to shiver. They both were speechless. I know something is odd. The dress, the room, the way these two are speaking, the way they call me and this guy who looks like my brother who is he? Everything seems wrong.
"Who is... Lady Hui?"
