The sky was lit by two bright moons in the shade of blue. Trees were lit by blue-glowing butterflies perched in groups on each trunk. The Trees taller than the lighthouse just by the horizon on the sea.
A Girl sat against a tree trunk just at the forest edge, her hair split in black and white, her clothes scoring the clothes of a sweater and socks of a dull blue-violet. She seemed to be reading a book with a leather cover in the shade of purple. She shot up when she heard her name be called in the near distance, a cow bell following it,
"Elysian! It's time for dinner. If you don't hurry up You know the consequence."
Elysian, got to her feet and walked away from the forests edge across a large field of tall green grass, daisy accompanied the shades of green. She opened the gate of the fence surrounding her house and closed it behind her, walking over to the front door and walking inside.
As usual, her younger siblings surrounded her in a huddle. There were a dozen of them. She pushed past them and sat down at the long dining table that was almost too big for the kitchen. Each chair being mismatched and having a name on the back for each kid in the house.
Elysian's mother would place plates in front of each child, today, dinner was mashed potatoes.
Elysian was the first to finish her food as usual. She always did. She quickly walked up the tall spiral stairs to her room.
She opened her bedroom door and walked inside, shutting it behind her. To her surprise a young lady with short, ginger hair sat on the windowsill.
"Heya El!" , she spoke with a voice as soothing as a chirp from a hummingbird.
"What're you doing here, Freya?! Shouldn't you be taking care of your brothers?" , Elysian asked, her voice in a harsh whisper.
"My brothers are already asleep, plus I wanted to see you, Ellie!" , Freya smiled with bliss.
Elysian blushed, she would cover her face with her sweater sleeve, "Heh—Okay. Well, do you want to do some origami with me?"
Freya jumped down from the window, "Duh! Of course!"
After a few hours, Freya had to eventually go home. Elysian waved goodbye as she watched Freya from a distance fading away into the bramble.
