Once upon a time in the dukedom of Eckhart there lived a pretty maiden named Felice.

Every day, Felice would take a morning stroll to the garden and get a quick sniff of her favorite sunflower.

Later that night, the estate holds a banquet for her brother's coming-of-age ceremony.

"Argh, why is it the that I should also attend this party even though they know that I don't like any crowded places". I said irritatingly.

After I finished greeting the others, I secretly sneak out of the reception. As I was on my way to the lawn, I noticed a room. It looks too ordinary but something is keeping me from ignoring it.

I opened the door and found a room with huge jars full of wines and boxes of apples. As I inspect the room, I found a white curtain hanging strangely on a wall. I pulled up the curtain and found another door.

The door's design is elaborately carved into it.  And below it is a phrase, "Only those with a pure soul can open it". Is what is written on it.

"Click", the door opened. I stride inside and found a room with a fireplace and under it is a wolf! It is a wolf pup and a cute one. It suddenly opened its eyes and immediately ran outside after finding me there. It was snowing so I was wotried that it may not survive the harsh winter.

So I chased down the pup and luckily I caught him. As I was walking into the house I incidentally stumbled across a mysterious tree with glittering leaves. I decide to take a closer look at it and found a black box inside the tree hollow. I opened it and found an old clock, red shoes, a magic pen and lastly a portrait of a pretty lady.

"She strangely looks familiar. I feel like I've seen her before".

I racked my brain to remember who this pretty lady is.

"Aha! It's grandma Alicia!".
After saying that name I suddenly woke up from my dream with tears flowing into my face, and I realized that it was grandma's Death anniversary today.
