There was once a woman named Isabella who was known throughout the land for her stunning beauty. No matter where she went, people would stop and stare in awe at her perfect features and radiant smile. But little did they know that Isabella's beauty came with a curse.
It all started one fateful night when Isabella attended a ball at the grandest palace in the kingdom. As she danced the night away with the prince, she suddenly felt a searing pain in her chest. She clutched at her heart and tried to scream, but no sound came out.
The prince looked on in horror as Isabella's body began to transform before his very eyes. Her skin turned to stone, her hair became a mass of twisted vines, and her eyes turned to glittering stones. Soon, she was no longer a woman at all, but a statue.
As Isabella stood frozen in place, she felt a sense of unimaginable terror. She was aware of everything that was happening around her, but she was powerless to move or speak. She could see her friends and loved ones looking at her in shock and horror, but she couldn't even shed a tear.
Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months, but Isabella remained frozen in time. Her mind began to wander, and she found herself lost in a never-ending nightmare. She longed for the sweet release of death, but it never came.
And so, Isabella remained trapped inside her stone prison, forever frozen in time. Her once-beautiful features were now cold and lifeless, and the only thing she could feel was the unrelenting horror of her own existence.
