Dreams Of The Past - Fantasy by Lady Siofra

"Follow me as I a lead you forward. Please keep your eyes forward, to look elsewhere you would be tempted into another's dream. Doing so you risked being trapped. You said you wished to see what was wiped from your memories mortal. Are you prepared for this? Once seeing this your fate may change, and this time it maybe forever. " The Guide watched for the silent nod before shaking its hooded head. before taking the journey down the path of dreams.

Eventually for what seemed hours, and a brief moment the guide stopped. This figure turned and gestured to the bubbled which was blurry but slowly coming into focus. The warning said earlier flashed through the mortal girls mind. She turned and nodded her head as if to say she was ready.

Then without warning her wrist was gripped and she was tossed into the bubble. The passing through it felt as if someone had punched her stomach. Soon she was stirring and looking down it was her body...but different. It was her body from when she was younger. As she pushed her hand down to sit up she felt the soft fabric which felt like silk.

It felt familiar, but this place that she slowly looked around was not in her memory. She turned her body and slid off the bed.  Her bare feet touching the tiled floor which flowed in a hypnotic pattern of gray and black. Now looking down to Her bed, the colors were dark a navy. It complemented the black toned walls of stone.

As her eyes drifted through the room she noticed a mirror. She moved towards it her reflection became clear. In focus was the body she was in. As well as a blurred shade of the girl who entered the dream. Standing next to her was the hooded figure. She shivered slightly it was as if she was haunting herself. And wondered if the future could haunt the past.

As if her guide could read her thoughts there was a whisper "yes"

She turned her head to look at the hooded figure and then back to her reflection. Her moved her fingers to her face. Petal soft skin of an ivory. Her cheek hued of a soft lilac and her lips matched. Her hair was black but when the light touched it reflected cool colors of; blue, green, and indigo. It was then she noticed her tapered ears "I feel so alien..." She breathed out. She could feel the hooded figure touching her shoulder. A hint of empathy, and much sadness.
