"And that was the dream," Audra concluded simply. "It was voices in a strange and noisy void."
"Is something bothering you lately?" the platinum-haired woman couldn't help but deduce something of that sort. "You know, dreams are sometimes things that our mind thinks or sees frequently."
"No, I refuse to believe that I would fixate on something like that," Audra tried to speak nonchalantly, shrugging. "Who would be so idle?"
"I don't know," Ethel replied with an ironic tone, her lips arched mischievously. "I really have no idea."
"So funny," Audra responded with a hint of irony. "Why haven't they hired you as a court jester yet, huh?" He arched one eyebrow as he approached her shoulder, almost lightly pushing her. "Your humor would be so memorable it would go down in history."
"Do you feel so offended by me insinuating something so obvious?" The tone was arrogant, sarcastic. "And besides, I really would... imagine," she le

" Ethel began to wonder when tightening her long platinum hair "it wasn’t me... would not even be..." he continued to murmur as he held the waters that wanted to fall from his eyes.She tried to review all the things that made her reach that moment, from her childhood to her marriage, her sale."I can’t love you, I’ll never be able to love you," the platinum clearly remembered, remembered the intonation, the wide sapphire eyes, the way that man’s body had moved to throw that in her face.The same man who said he fell in love at first sight, the same man who had bright eyes and a gentle smile and a sweet voice; now he said he would not love her.Was she some kind of joke to him? Was there anything she had done wrong? Had that passion dissipated as its ashes would be in the wind? Was t

He couldn’t help but ask, but then he noticed; his hands were now small again, and his voice thin as when he was a child.Child? A... child?"What do you mean what am I doing here, silly?" His mother did not avoid laughing when answering, thus bringing one of his hands to his mouth "I came to stay with my little daughter, what else would I be doing here?" soon further messed up the hairs that were now short of Ethel.Now his purple eyes were confused, he was lost, he was wondering a thousand and one things inside his now small, pale head.Had she died? And if not, why did she come back? How did she come back? Who made her come back? With what method did she come back? Would that have any side effects

They said she went crazy and killed the archduke's favorite mistress" one of the guards approached the one next to him "the cause was strangulation, and then a deep cut to the throat…" the man's gaze dropped, as if they were now feeling sorry for the poor soul they had never even met."Yes, everyone was talking about how the body was found, it was something horrible to see" the other added "she really must have succumbed to madness as they said, but it's not surprising" he leaned forward a little more, thus putting his hand in front of his mouth, like a true gossip woman of high society "it was common knowledge that she didn

Their speech was occasionally slurred.Did they really think they could accomplish anything in that state?"I see I made you wait, my dear," firm hands grasped the pale shoulders, hands with dark skin and sharp black nails that were extremely familiar.
