Synthetic Dreams

Category: Sci-Fi

There were stories told of this place, and none of them ended well.

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 stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.

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

The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

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

The end.
