Lina found herself in a nightmare. She opened her eyes to sunlight on her skin, the wind in her hair, and the meadow scent tickling her nose. Forest trees wrapped around the enormous meadow, where flowers of all colors and sizes could be seen. She gazed up at the sky, astonished by the beautiful white clouds, and abundance of birds. She noticed a pack of ravens flying by, chasing a white dove. Before she could follow it any longer, an ecstatic voice filled the air.
"Mama, Mama!"
Lina turned around. She had never heard such excitement and joy before. The childlike wonder and innocence were hard to miss. When she glanced down, she saw the ancient dresses she wore, as a Princess of Teran.
