The sun rose from the east, it casted long, dark shadows throughout the temple. Flowers brought color to the otherwise colorless sanctuary, and a lone priestess stood in the golden light of the first sun.
Her hands stayed folded infront of her chest as Apollo slowly continued to raise the sun. The light casted dark shadows on her face and the soft breeze caressed her cheeks. She stood tall, her dark skin contrasting the white marble of the temple around her.
Had she known this was the last sunrise she would witness with full awe for thousands of years, maybe she would have kept her eyes open a few minutes longer.
But she didn't know any better. She didn't believe she had any reason to fear. She thought her goddess would protect her, but protection came to late.
The priestess in that temple would not trust anyone for years to come, would not show compassion for a thousand years, but what happens when a young girl decides to follow her blindly?

At the End of the Day
[COMPLETED] "We both agreed, Apollo! We said no feelings, no attachments! You promised you wouldn't get attached." I look down at my lap in worry and shame. I have no idea what to say, I promised her, but like an idiot I broke that promise. "Say something!" My breath hitches and I look up at my beautiful girl through my lashes, my eyes brimming with tears because I know after tonight we won't be seeing each other again.

The Duchesses
Aurora opens her eyes only to feel the agonising pain in her body. That is to be expected when there has been an accident. It's excruciatingly painful. Aurora groans in pain and pulls off the blanket, taking in her surroundings. It is more appropriate for a hospital interior design to look to the mediaeval era. Not shabby, but more on the extravagant side. The nurses' attire, on the other hand, appears odd. Someone said out of nowhere, "Her Grace, please wake up! Call the doctor right away!" Aurora approaches the mirror and looks at the woman with deep red eyes in it. The woman had blonde hair that, while a little messy, flowed perfectly over her shoulder. Her fair complexion lends her an ethereal appearance. Not to mention that her outfits make her look like a noblewoman from a historical series. She pinches herself, only to realise that the blonde woman staring at her is herself. A thought struck her mind, as she utters her first statement in this world, "Fuck me". Medea has finished her work, but she is still unsure how to fix all of the messes. She hasn't been herself in a long time, and it's bothering her. The throne seems so far away, and the weight of the burden grows heavier with each passing day. A letter from the Imperial Palace has arrived, instructing the Duchess to look after the House of Smith's Duchess of Light, Natalie Wilson Smith. As an evil scheme was about to unfold, she smiled wickedly. 'This is my new card.' p/s: I can't find the original owner of the photo of the cover, if you know or you are the owner of the cover.

Age of Decimus: The Division
Summary: There are many unanswered mysteries on the "planet" of Ganymede, especially for the people who took refuge on this icy moon. No one questions the supreme leader's way of keeping harmony and order, everyone except for Ina Andromeda. It was never Ina's intention to tear down The Society, but when she is forced to divide into the Capitol and leave her sick mother behind, like many others, her spirit cannot stand for it, and in the process, she falls in love. BLIP: The dry air made it difficult to take in a breath and I had a dire need to grip and dig my nails into my thighs as the aura of Ernesh brought chills up my arms; I could not see him, but it was evident he wasn't far from reach. "The longer you stand there in silence, little lyōbo, the more you irk me," his gruff voice called out behind the forcefield as it trickled down to his feet, the pixelated particles vanishing before my eyes like icicles. Once the veil was removed, a tall young man with dark eyes and silver hair, almost too pretty to be seen as evil, stared at me with a cold glare of hatred and curiosity; he was not at all what I had expected.

Medusa And The Blind Beauty (gxg)
"Who's there?" Megara asked, her voice calm but curious. Medusa was stunned into silence. It wasn't fear in Megara's tone-just genuine curiosity. For a moment, Medusa considered fleeing, but something about the priestess's unthreatening demeanor held her in place. When Medusa finally spoke, her voice was hesitant, as if unsure of how to handle this unusual encounter. "You shouldn't be here," she said softly, her tone carrying both a warning and a plea. Megara tilted her head slightly, sensing the tension in the voice. "Forgive me. I didn't mean to intrude," she said, turning her face toward Medusa without hesitation. "I'm gathering herbs for the temple. This garden is... beautiful." Medusa blinked, utterly perplexed. No one had complimented her or anything of hers in so long. "You... you're not afraid?" Medusa asked, her snakes hissing softly in curiosity. Megara smiled faintly. "Why would I be afraid? You sound lonely, not dangerous."Complete
