Bright. Bold and blinding light has set the sky aflame. Strange. How these lands can change while all here stays the same. Hooked. Last I dared and looked through gateway's tiny crack This world beyond both queens' domain stood silent, shy, and black. Glee. I caress a tree beyond my mushroom ring. Old. Feels like tales untold. I listen, then I sing. Wrong. Nothing joins my song. Such apathetic lack Of cheer turns bliss to loneliness. Perhaps I'd best head back.
