In a dark space, the figure is subtly sinister, her clothing all earthen colors of green blue, brown & gray. The ancient throne she occupies is tarnished gold & browns. The air is thick with smoke & mists, finally beginning to clear as you’re compelled towards her. This woman, approximately 45 years of age is seated resolutely upon her throne, tensely staring at you. Her demeanor is unknown.

There’s a shrill buzzing increasing in volume slightly as you creep toward her. You see a finger twitch. A few strands of hair seem to be animated. Her pupils? Weren’t they there before you took a few hesitant steps toward her? Your foot involuntarily shifts back a step & you hear a voice say “Stay.” In your mind. Her voice is in your mind. Her garments are living things?
