The Lake

Gretta watched the water of the lake they passed, her hand reaching out to touch the surface of the water. It felt both cold and warm at the very top. 

On the lake, there was the reflection of the blue sky and the sun shining so calmly. Gretta could also see the reflection of herself as she got closer to the surface of the lake. 

With her reflection, Gretta took in every inch of her face. Seeing the purple color in her eyes that looked beautiful, but also seemed to be drowning at the same time. For some reason, there was a sense of dread lurking in the depths of her heart when she saw it. 

Fear not only for herself, but for everyone around her. Sometimes, Gretta felt lost in herself. Like the incident in the palace when she turned into a werewolf, Gretta really couldn't feel herself. It was like she lost herself and became a new, much more cruel person.
