Bound with Shadows
And then, suddenly, I was somewhere else.
I stood barefoot on marble, cold against my skin. I was in a vast corridor of ivory and alabaster. The walls shimmered like moonstone, casting reflections that danced even though no flame burned. Everything around me pulsed with power—like the air had secrets etched into it, secrets too old and too sacred for human tongues to name.
And then I saw her.
The White Lady.
Again.
She stood at the far end of the hall, back turned, robes like smoke trailing around her, whispering against the marble. Her silver hair flowed in waves down her back, and her hands, clasped behind her, radiated a light that didn't cast a shadow.
