DREAMVERSE 34 - The Waterfall Palace
My ancestors once built this palace as a secret getaway for our family.
Well-hidden at the base of the falls, it served as as a reprieve from the burdens royalty.
I’m sure they never imagined it’d become my safe house.
Me—the only surviving heir, the last drop of the bloodline.
Nevertheless here I am, encompassed by the water’s steady roar, guarded from the nightmares that lurk just beyond.
After the war, everything turned upside-down. I barely escaped the chaos.
I have only the servants here as my company—the only people whom I can trust now.
At least I do not have to bear this solitude alone.
This peaceful abode does well to settle my soul; the memories it holds bring me some comfort.
Eventually, I will leave. After the vines upon the eaves have grown thicker, and I, like this place, am but a faded memory.
Until that day, I wait and I watch.
