Guide Me

Laina held onto the locket.

"Perhaps my heart will guide me there," Laina whispered to the lamp, "I am putting my faith in you, little flame."

She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath. She could feel the heat radiating from the lamp as she walked down the corridor. As she made her way down, she could hear the muffled sounds from each door.

There were countless times Laina was tempted to open the doors to see what was behind them. But Solixia's words echoed in her mind. She did not know how long she walked for, but it felt like a really long time. 

Just as she was beginning to wonder if she was going about it the wrong way, Laina felt an intense heat radiating from the lamp. She opened her eyes to see the door on her left, illuminated by the blue flame.
