Welcome to My World...
 Hello, everyone. I’m rather new to this wiki even though I’ve been lurking around for some time, and this is the first time I’m posting a fanfic here. Please excuse the newbie if she gets anything wrong. :) I’m posting a little something from my latest writing project to jump start my PJOFFW adventure, a proper introduction to yours sincerely would be created later. Let’s just say that I’m a teenager(for a few more months, at least) who spends most of her time day-dreaming and roleplaying and multitasking. That pretty much sums up what I am right now - things will change in the near future, I think. (Hello, College!!! Goodbye, freedom!!! *facepalm*)

A Little Something...
 This is not the entire fanfic, oh no, it’s just a really short teaser of an idea that has been growing in my mind. It’s still in the process of planning and writing, so it would be some time before the entire story is available. I would add the chapters of (what I think it would be) the novella as soon as they are presentable, but I’m still working out most of the plot. The teaser and the story are subject to changes along the way if I find controversies, and the title would definitely be changed later.

 I’m glad to receive any constructive criticism about the plot, spelling, grammar, writing style, or just about anything at all; they are really valuable, and means so much to me. The preview wasn’t beta read, but the story shall be. (Yes I’m looking at you, Tsu. :P You dragged me in, and you’ll have to help me around now. :D) The teaser was intentionally written in an abstract voice, but the story would be more reader-friendly and won’t sound so archaic.



Dreaming


 The naiad stirred in her sleep.



 It was a quiet nook hitherto untainted by the touch of humans for hundreds of years, a faraway place hidden in memories of an Empire fallen. A place of beauty that no one knew. A prison for a soul that earned the anger and a rare moment of goodwill of a Goddess. A place to stay hidden, locked away from everyone until there was a second chance.

 …Blue eyes… 

 Water flowed down in a cascade thirty feet high, twisting and twirling around a series or rocks before gathering in a pond at the base, lined with more stones, artistically covered in soft moss. Tall trees and beautiful shrubs completed the scenery. It was all simple, natural beauty, calm and quiet, and yet without a single person alive to enjoy it. White foam bubbled and curled around her form drifting just under the surface of the pool, deep in sleep.

 …A lie… 

 She slumbered for many years, many hundreds of years, falling in and out of a constant dream, a painful reminder of her punishment. Yet it was better than the fate that awaited her otherwise – death. She was given a choice, and a moment of indecision earned the ire of a goddess who did not forgive easily. And then she lost that which had bound her to her life – once her heart was broken, only death was left for her. Yet, the Goddess gave her another chance, to prove herself worthy. To wait thousands of years forgotten from everyone’s memory and start anew in a different time, a different place, a different person,and the same choice.

'' …Desparation... ''

 The dreams changed and she saw two people trudging up a mountain, a young boy and a girl around the same age. The road that no one had travelled, the road that led to her prison. They were weary, and the magic of the mountain was too sacred to be spoiled by small talk. They didn’t know what awaited at the top, and they were already running out of time. Would they meet a friend or foe? Would they meet anyone at all?

 …Woe… 

 They were coming nearer, and so was her new future. There wasn’t a third chance; even in her semiconscious state, she knew it. She would forget everything, or at least almost everything, and her choice would be even harder. Was it worth dying for? She didn’t know. Not in the last time, no, but no one knew what future held for her.
