Darkness swallowed Ella.
It was cold. Silent. And completely dark.
A chill crept down her spine and her body shivered.
But before the darkness could scare her, she saw a small twinkling light from somewhere.
Ella looked around the place and slowly approached the tiny light.
Ella's footsteps gradually slowed when she saw the source of light.
It seemed like a tiny leaf that was floating in the air. Except, it seemed to be made of crystal as it was transparent yet shiny.
She reached out to grab it but it floated away.
When Ella chased it, a blinding brightness spread in front of her eyes.
And she saw similar leaves flying everywhere in the darkness, illuminating the space.
In her daze, Ella reached out to hold one and suddenly, the scene in front of her changed completely.
The Eve Mansion?
Ella looked around the familiar place.
The grand mansion seemed to have corroded from inside as a darkness consumed it.
There was not a single servant in sight.
