Revelation

Flickr Link~Raw SL Shot, No Edit

"It's impossible!" She exclaimed, face hidden behind a thick book, "No one has ever found the entrance." she huffed and shook her head. "We've been looking for years and you're telling me that you've been there?!" she questioned, her face has appeared into view and I could see the conflicted expression, rush of emotion that was quite shown to my gaze. Her eyes told me something else, it was a mixed feeling of doubt, jealousy and yet, relief. I remained silent for a moment, taking in all the explosive energy that her final question as built within the small study room. "Well?" she pressed on, there was a change in her look, almost as if she wished I was bluffing or I just had one of those dreams that seemed like reality. I admit that there are times I do not know the difference only after time has settled. I sighed heavily, plopping down on one of the sofas while turning my gaze away from her. "I..." I started on then sighed again, "It's hard to explain, this time it felt real, much real than anything I have ever experienced..." I murmured.

Silence prevailed but I could hear her silent sigh of relief, as if my lack of proof has given her all the answer she needed to assume that it was just another one of my wild dream conquests. The cushion of her chair made that familiar sound which indicated she sat back down, pages of her thick book was heard and I just couldn't find it in myself to turn and look at her again. Of course she didn't believe me... But I think if I could go back there, if I was given another chance to peek I could possibly find more answers. I closed my eyes just to relive that memory, the little that was left with me on my short visit.

It was thick with fog that seemed to not hold one particular color or texture. The more I stared the more I seemed to forget about things that mattered. It made me realize the fog was not normal. How can a million glass pieces remain shattered and frozen over time? As I looked ahead there was a long route that led to darker places or perhaps just a never ending passage of broken shards of memories. I tried to walk along but something kept me in place, something that started to swirl around me creating a dynamite of light. It was at that moment I saw the entrance, the entrance we've been searching for in a long time now but as I went to reach for it... I woke up. That was the beginning and end of my revelation. For now.

Decor:

This set was designed by Lokhe. I just took a photo in it, as usual. He used the Madpea Asylum, some E.V.E Studio decor and Anc Ltd's glass shards and fog. Check out this photo he did on the same scene.

Attire:

I'm wearing a beautiful dress by Una called Sofia and it is soo flowy, big and dreamy! I wish it came in more colors but I can't complain on how 'princessy' it makes me feel. My Truth Hair called Ophelia is kind of noticeable too (I so wish Truth makes more dual toned hair! Pleaseee) and the Ear Accessory by Zaara. I wanted a sort of surreal princess look! 

Crossing Cultures

How vibrant her laughter echoed across the water gardens. Her agile figure dancing along the mossy vine decorated temples and with every step she took the sound of her jewelry clinging against her skin just brought more melody into the air. Like a hurricane she zoomed along the sand, rushed into the ocean and caressed nature with her gentle heart. A myth whispered her name everywhere she touched for she was the guardian of the island, keeper of warmth, protector of the lush wildlife and the companion of the ocean. 

One day, her island began to shake heavily. Multiple shocks brought cracks through the earth, caused the great temple to crumble and many animals to flee for their lives. Heavy rains attacked the island and a darkness engulfed the brightness of her delicate reign. That did not keep her from breathing life to her island over and over, mending what she could and maintaining what was left. It silently broke her heart thinking of her lost friends and the lost vision of what was once a great island.

That was when he showed himself. He had been lurking in the shadows, cast away by his people due to his ideals. It has been told he was only a minion within the ocean, a soldier to the goddess of the sea and yet here he was conquering everything in his path with darkness. Being a rebel was not part of his plan, but he felt there was more to his life than being withheld from his full ability. He found himself drawn to her courage, her zeal to keep bringing life and this is what saved him from losing himself in his grief. The dragon of the sea pledged himself to be a protector to the guardian. Together they brought back peace and together they made the island grow, adding more soul to what it already was.

Many years later, visitors to the island have claimed to see a local woman, with a dragon hovering around her, hissing at anyone who tried to approach her. It was a strange cross culture.

Writer's Note:

Pandora Resort ~ Namaste is now open to the public. We had a great opening party with many friends who enjoyed the day in good music and dance. We welcome everyone to enjoy the sim and make plenty of memories. We have few rentals available and some have already been rented for those who would like to make Pandora Resort your home. 

The dream weaver poured his heart out once again and brought another unique design, the Resort is an exotic island just off the coast to India. It is filled with imprints of history, warmth, lush wildlife and plenty of secret spots.

Time for a Bedtime Story

Flickr Link~ No Edit, Raw SL Snapshot

It was all in her head, that is what they always said. But, she begs to differ for every night when the clock strikes twelve, they come out demanding a bedtime story. It became a routine she was looking forward to every evening. A strange girl she was, attracted to old trinkets, old books and the dark arts. Her family did all they could to 'cure' her, sent her to the best doctors, even confined her for a year at the best hospital. The doctors and nurses whispered of her antics, how she never failed to get out of bed to narrate a bedtime story. They could not see anyone, only she could see them, only she understood them. 

As she grew up and independent, she managed to be more discreet in her storytime moments. Eventually, she was away from the chains that bounded her, free to live alone and free to conduct more open bedtime stories. They slowly became her children, each one of them with an equally peculiar story. Perhaps you will hear about them some other time. ;)

Le Six Event opened its doors today, after months of preparation it is finally launched! If you haven't heard of this event, it is a new concept event that is free for designers with certain rules that need to be followed (Of course ;)) It was developed by Natacha Haroldsen and Yeiyaiel, owners of Knick Knacks and Le Sixieme Sens sim. The october round is looking great, there are various designers from decor, outfits and poses so please check the October Shopping Guide and VISIT the event!

Let me talk about the few designers I featured in this photo; Knick Knacks made this comfortable sofa and the carpet. The Silas Gallery made these awesome scary monsters, as much as I wanted to put them all in the photo, it was going to be damn crowded so I only selected a few. If you look closely towards the armrest of the sofa, there is a cute dolly with a french hat (>.> I should google what it is called, right?) the little doll is actually not really little, I resized him so he blended into the story picture nicely, he is created by Serenity Style and there is a hold and rez version. Finally, this amazing photobox is by D.U.S.T, I was so excited seeing the preview, there is another one with white balloons that I am sure I will use in future photo idea endeavors.

Bauhaus Movement- Verlain Set, Monocle & Necklace
Ilse Pinklady Nails- Passion

The dress I am wearing is by by Clef de Peau, I love the puffy sleeves and overall comfortable yet classy style of this dress. A monocle was something that always made me feel all steampunk or old fashioned, I always intended to get one but never got around to it, I am so happy Bauhaus Movement made one and they also included a necklace that is equally unique in its design, I know in my photo it is not seen properly so I added a close up version so the item can be seen clearly in all its glamour and high quality!

My nail polish in this second photo is my Ilse Pinklady, it is part of her passion set that I adore and mostly always use when I wear white.

Designers who are interested in applying can apply for November round here.
