Clothes, fraying at the seems.

But it didn't matter if they were torn or not, as the clothes would still mark the girl to her correct environ.

The flora made sure of that.

And even if her clothes were torn, a variegated look of amusement and joy played on her face.

She'd always revere them as they were always trustworthy.

At least that's what the reveries said.

It was a terrible place that the girl had arrived in, cold and damp, the water itself was hardly saturated, but she kept going, wanting, no, needing to see if it was really true.

A new woman had come into the picture, and she, Naveh, was inept at most everything.

The pendulum. The pendulum had been taken.

The girl had today been finally happy that she was still dual of arms, now that she was carrying it. 'It'; the thing that would tell her the truth.

The girl was inflicted with pain, physical and mental.

'Even something of medicinal properties could and would never help I', she thought, as she laid on the cold hard floor, soon to be burning.

This was just the overture of their world, the beginning, and it would not come to a close for a very long time.
