DOLL COLLECTION ( arcane ! )

🏹 ⁺ ๑˚.┊Within the breadth of a soul as pure as heavenly light, Aliris is a teenage girl whose heart is home to a gentle entity.

Like a harp whose strings chimed in longing, her mind became cradled by the goddess' calling, intricately stitched at the seams, and nestled within that of the otherworldly beings' until she became a divine gateway that intertwined their realms like needle and thread.

One day, she found herself happening upon a realm that belonged to her favorite show, her fairytales coming to life within her newfound reality.

As seamless as ribbon, she found herself taking on the role of a doll collector: a responsibility that meant becoming a caretaker for a Hershey-hued antique and protecting its magic.

Bestowed upon her by life itself, hand-crafted dolls were made with the utmost care, gently sewn to reflect the undercity's most tragic inhabitants, and resting upon the very love-imbued shelf she guarded.

At its core, the snuggly plushies were meant to act as angels, delicate presences that looked like a character whose life had reached its tragic end within canon.

The undercity's fragile minds, mended around the concept of being unimportant to the entire world, hadn't yet reached awareness of the fact that their beating hearts had been the enchanted shelf's very source of life.

Each life represented a tiny thread in the fabric of its creation, their existences upholding its own, and in turn, being sustained by it.
