Empire of Magic

Category: Fantasy

The map was old, its edges frayed, but the path it showed was unmistakable.

The train pulled out of the station with a long, mournful whistle.

The fire had burned down to embers, but neither of them moved to stoke it.

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.

Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

The garden had been her mother’s pride, and now it was hers.

The end.
