I shuffle into the bathroom, muttering to myself about bad Wi-Fi and worse life choices. The mirror greets me with the same face that stayed up till 3 a.m. last night “just one more level.” I look like a sleep-deprived raccoon that discovered eyeliner.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MgCbHvAox

A palace — tall, arched ceilings, sunlight pouring through embroidered curtains, air smelling faintly of jasmine and smoke. The floor beneath my feet gleams like polished stone. I take a step, half expecting to wake up, half expecting some museum guard to yell at me for breathing too loud.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvWNQ2b43d

My comfy hoodie and pajamas are gone, replaced by a long ivory dress that shimmers faintly when I move. Gold stitching along the sleeves, a ribbon tied around my waist like I’m some ancient princess in a costume drama.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3bOhJMz1Z

The palace is quiet. Too quiet. I can hear faint birds somewhere far off, the kind of silence that makes you feel like the world’s holding its breath. I walk slowly down the corridor, my bare feet barely making a sound, and the air hums with something— energy? Memory? I don’t know.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kxxLjQDnA
