Eleventh Chapter ─ Once Upon the Star Orchestra

"Magic Mirror on the wall, who's the most ridiculous one of all?"

Four fingers extended to the clear surface. The line delivered belonged to the Queen but now, it's Snow White. If not an ironical stance, then I'd be fine accepting coincidence through playfulness. Albeit through playfulness, there's only one answer to all the underlying questions of similar structures─pointing out to Snow White, in our case, all on his own.

There was a large mirror in the room.

One which spanned a meter wide and three times longer─the frame had intricate carvings from the bygone era, making people such as myself appreciate craftsmanship even if they've gone down the darkness of fighting consumer culture. Weirdly, rather than assuming Snow White, a leashed Edward Hyde wanted to smash the object in six trillion shards. While there's no repressed urge, it felt like it wouldn't hurt to craft an artwork.

Because─there's nothing left to do but wait until morning.
