When two worlds collide

The abandoned house

The woman found herself in a strange, but very comfortable bed. She had no clue to where she was. When she tried to sit up, she felt an intense pain in her head. She lay down again and at that moment she heard the door open. The woman tried to look who came in, but the foot of the bed was to high to see while laying down. The woman sat up again to see who came int. She ignored the pain that was running through her head. 'Ow, you're awake!' She heard a female voice saying. The woman looked around, but she didn't see the speaker. 'I'm over here. I'm Rayden by the way.' From behind the closet door a young woman appeared. She was dressed in a simple dress with an apron. It looked like a very old dress. There were holes in it and at some places the fabric was sewed back together. She had her black curly hair in a messy ponytail. Her face was looking very tired. 'You might wanna lay down again. You had quite an ugly head injury. I shall inform my master that you're conscious again' Rayden said while she was changing the bandage on the woman's head. When she was done she left the room. 4 days went by. The woman started to feel better every day. Rayden came in every day. The woman found it odd that she never saw anyone else but Rayden. Especially since Rayden often said things about the master of the house. On the fifth day she felt well enough to step out of bed and walk through the room. She walked to the curtains, which always seemed to be closed. She opened them and found herself looking at her own house through the window. she was startled and stepped away from the window. At that moment Rayden came in. 'Ah you're up. My master would like to speak with you. Hold on, I'll go get him.' Rayden left again. The woman stayed behind,puzzled. A few minutes later, Rayden came back with a man behind her. The man looked familiar to the woman. 'How are you my lady?' the man asked. Even his voice sounds familiar. 'Where am I? Why do you look so familiar?' She asked. The man smiled ' I'm Eldrion. As you might have seen, I'm your neighbor. You're in my house. Rayden took care of you after the attack.' She smiled back. She remembered why he sounded so familiar. 'You helped me. How can I ever repay you?' She bowed to the man. ' There is no need to repay me. But you could tell me your name, my lady.' 'Of couse, how rude of me. I'm Melafree.' 'Welcome Melafree. Would you like to join me for a walk?' She nods and he took her hand. They left the room and entered a big hall way. The hall way was lighted by torches, the holders seemed to be made of solid gold. The walls were white as snow and perfectly whole. They reached a marble staircase and started climbing it. 'How is this possible. This house looks like its about to fall into pieces. and it certainly isn't as big on the outside as it is inside.'Melafree didn't know where to look. The place was the most beautiful thing she ever saw. Eldrion opened a door and gestured Melafree to enter. They were standing in an enormous room. The walls were covered in books. There was a desk near the window, filled with parchment. In the middle of the room there were two couches and in the middle of them was a table. At this table there was a tea set. Eldrion sat down on one of to couches. 'Have a seat, my lady, and allow me to explain.'
