Fantasies are often pictured as the 'epitome of a perfect world' by both young and old alike as a lot of things and happenings that are deemed impossible could be possible in the realm of fantasy.
Existence of magic? Possible.
The existence of angels and demons? Possible.
Even the existence of flying pigs which is considered to be one of the most ridiculous ideas could also be possible.
Although there are certain records in human history about the existences of these kinds of stuff, nobody could still prove their existences as these records had been passed down from generation to generation and the credibility of these records couldn't be proven as people tend to create various versions of what they've known which is also the case for the records involving unbelievable existences of what we deemed impossible.
This is the reason why the existence of those mentioned above could be considered as the product of human imagination: fantasy.
Maybe the result of our imagination might be real and existed. Well, who knows?

It was another normal day. As for fine, it was still unknown whether the day would turn out to be fine or not but Naomi hoped it would.
It was still early in the morning which is why the hallway was so quiet that even the footsteps of a single person could be clearly heard.
A girl dressed up in a maid outfit was walking down the hallway and when she passed by a certain door, she stopped and went to knock.
The knock reverberated around the hallway but there was still no response nor any signs of movements inside the room that can be heard.
After a while of silence, Lillian, the maid, decided to knock once again on the door but there was still no response. Thus, she decided to enter the room.
What greeted her was a maximalist room that was shrouded in darkness as the heavy curtains covered the large windows and completely blocked the sunshine to illuminate the room.
Lillian went to the window situated on the left side of the room where one of the heavy curtains had been hanging and opened the curtain.
The sunlight that had been completely blocked off the room was now able to enter and illuminate the room.
As the sunlight illuminated up the room, the room was unable to keep its silence as a grumble could be heard.
The grumble came from the person, a woman, lying on the bed.
She was originally facing the direction of the window when the light coming from outside the window disturbed her sleep. She turned to sleep facing the right side of the bed as she grabbed the duvet and covered her whole self with it.
Lillian couldn't help but sigh when she saw her actions. She went near the bed and grabbed the duvet, once again revealing the woman and the sun shined on her.
"Young Miss, it's time to wake up," Lillian said while holding the part of the duvet she had grabbed.
The woman seemed to be irritated as a frown formed on her face and grumbled as her eyes remain shut despite the disturbance.
"Today's the Flower Festival. Lady Camilla has ordered us to attend to you early in the morning."
The woman laid on her back as she sprawled on the bed.
"Today's the Flower Festival?" She asked while remaining motionless on the bed and her eyes fully closed.
"Yes, Young Miss," Lillian said respectfully.
There was silence and after a while, the woman in the bed slowly opened both of her drowsy almond eyes which revealed a deep black pupil and chestnut iris. As the sunlight shone on her, her exquisite and enchanting face revealed itself. Her skin was fair which made the rosy color of her cheeks more visible as well as her rosy bow-turned lips and on her face was a pointed nose.
People who saw her couldn't help to stop and stare at her eye-catching beauty and Lillian, who has been by her side for several years, is no exception.
"Alright. I'll get up in a minute."
Lillian nodded and went to prepare the things the woman lying in the bed would need. It took her a while to prepare everything.
She went back to the room and saw that the duvet, which was originally messed up as she grabbed it earlier, was now covering a certain person's body. She couldn't help but sigh at the person's actions.
"Young Miss, you really need to get up."
Being disturbed once again, she couldn't help but grumble again.
"Seriously, what's with the rush? The same event happen every year and there's nothing new into it." She said with annoyance in her sleepy voice.
"The old madam is going to attend the flower festival together with your mother and father." Lillian said, acting like she haven't heard the woman's complain.
At the mention of the two words which wrte 'old madam', the woman immediately sprung up from her laying position and went to sit with her drowsy eyes that she forced to open wide.
"Why didn't you say so?!" The woman complained and immediately got down from her bed and headed towards the direction of the bathroom.
'God knows how terrifying that woman is.' She thought as she hurried up with her preparations to take a bath.
From behind her, a joyful chuckle could be heard in the room.
The Flower Festival is one of the biggest events to happen in Florence.The people of Florence were very fond of flowers, especially women, that the vast majority of the land owned by those people living in Florence has been used to plant different kinds of flowers wherein some of those flowers nearing extinction were planted and cultivated but there are only a handful of them and some of these near extinction flowers are difficult to raise and would take a long time to mature.Since it's held in the season of spring where most flowers would bloom, the people of Florence decided to held a festival for the flower harvest which is what we call the "Flower Festival".Except for the locals, many people from neighbouring kingdoms would also come to visit Florence. Aside from those blooming flowers, there are also different kinds of stuff being sold at the streets like armors, clothes, and artifacts. There are many merchants who would come to Florence during this even
Both Naomi and Lillian was shocked to see the person who entered the room."SECOND UNCLE!"Naomi's voice reverberated in the whole room as she happily ran towards the person.That person chuckled and patted Naomi on her head like a kid.The person who entered was none other than Duchess Carmen's third son, Alistair. In all of Duchess Carmen's children, Alistair was the one who would often go out to travel and his whereabouts would be unknown. He would come home occasionally that it was hard for everyone to see him stay in Florence for too long.Although his whereabouts would be unknown, he would send some letters to his mother, reminding her that he was doing well and talk about other stuff.His arrival today haven't surprised Duchess Carmen but only the two ladies in the room."You still look short than ever, little lass.""What do you mean I still look short?! I grew 2 cm taller!" Naomi complained."I
Lillian give a quick chase to Naomi whose silhouette was slowly disappearing.Naomi stopped when she saw a hanging sign and stared at the place owning that sign which was the library. The sparkle in her eyes was still present and she stared at the library with those sparkles.She pushed the door which opened and the vintage interior of the library greeted her. The undisguised smell of both new and old books wafted together in the air.She went to look at the side and spotted something that made her smile."Lisa, something new today?" She walked in front of the library counter.The librarian, Lisa, have a huge spectacle on her eyes and freckles on her face. Her skin was tan and her hair was brown in colour which is currently tied in a fishtail braid.She was sitting down while reading a book and when she heard someone speaking to her, she immediately shut the book, stood up, and faced Naomi with a smile on her face."Well, yeah.
'Could it be a treasure?'With this possibility in her mind, she felt fearful towards the crystal ball.The thought of playing with it for a long time vanished in her mind. God knows how much a treasure is worth, be it a common, uncommon, or rare treasure and it is not something an ordinary person like me could afford.'Even if I save my lifetime salary, I can't fork out even half of a treasure's price...'Thinking back to her actions, Lillian's heart bled.'Good thing that I didn't damaged it even for a bit.' She cried inwardly.Lisa, who already snapped out of her deep thoughts, saw her staring fearfully at the crystal ball. A confused expression appeared on her face.She left the library counter and went near to Lillian while she stared at Lillian and the crystal ball repeatedly with a confused expression."What happened?" She asked.Lillian stared at her with the same fearful expression and glanced at the
The moon had already risen into the dark evening sky with the sun nowhere to be found.The once bustling streets of Florence became quiet, with the streetlights illuminating the darkness.The lights in every residences were already turned off which was the same in Naomi's residence.The door and windows of Naomi's room were closed and the heavy curtains were dropped to cover the windows. The atmosphere was warm.The room was quiet that the sound of Naomi's steady breathing could be heard.Her dream was nothing out of sort. What was happening in her dream was something she always wanted to experience in real life.Suddenly, the air enveloping the whole room became chilly which caused Naomi to frown due to the sudden coldness and grabbed the duvet tightly and draw it closer to her.At the same time, something bizarre is in her dreams. Compared to the usual vibrant dreams she would have, her dream this time was the complete opposit
Naomi crouched while hugging her knees, staring into the crystal clear glass shards with an emotionless face.Some crystal shards were scattered in the floor. Naomi picked a few and then threw it into the wall while still crouching.'What should I do?'Thinking of the circumstances she was in, Naomi wanted nothing more than to weep.'I never wanted to be transmigrated in an unknown world! If I did, atleast give me something that can help me!'Naomi was sullen and continued to pick and throw crystal shards as she remained silent and went deep into thoughts. Only the sound of crystal shards being thrown could be heard.This scenario continued for a while.Heaving a sigh, Naomi stopped and stood up, shaking the dirt off her snowy white clothes."I can't keep staying here and do nothing." She muttered to herself.'Okay. I need to get out of here.'She stared at the surroundings once again until her e
The dead branches and leaves that had fallen into the ground created a crisp sound as someone walked and happened to step on them.As Naomi walked forward, she kept looking around the area she passed by. Whether she walked into the right path that can lead her out of the forest, she wasn't sure about it herself.When she went out of the place she came from, on which she knew that it was a huge cave when she glanced at it from the outside, she just started to walk in the opposite direction of the cave and continued to walk forward.There was once a time where she thought that she had gone far away from the cave but when she looked back, she could still see the opening of the cave.Naomi continued to walk forward, venturing deeper into the forest. Looking around, she noticed that aside from the lush greenery and herself, the only beings that accompanied her were birds chirping as they fly away into the sky or stop by in some trees and there was still
The big black wolf fell into the ground as a silver arrow pierced its back where scarlet red blood oozed. It laid into the ground without making any moves.Naomi was still frightened with the sudden appearance of the big black wolf and how it attempted to kill her, its eyes appeared as if it can't wait to eat its food.She stood still, looking at the big black wolf, who was lying in the ground with its own pool of blood, with a frightened expression.She couldn't help but think, 'What if it succeeded?' Naomi couldn't continue to venture deeper in that thought."Are you okay?"The sound of the dead branches and fallen leaves being stepped upon sounded on which reached Naomi's ears.Naomi, with the same frightened expression she displayed on her face when she saw the wolf was going to pounce on her, looked up only to see a young man, who doesn't look like to be much older than her, approaching her.He was tall but fairly skinny. His loo
