Story 48: The Enchanted Reflection

In the heart of a forgotten manor, beneath layers of dust and years of neglect, lay a grandiose mirror that once captivated hearts and minds. The manor was now home to Elena, a young woman who recently inherited it from a distant relative. Her days were filled with exploring its many rooms, uncovering secrets that had been buried with time.

One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, Elena discovered a room she had never seen before. Inside, illuminated by the soft glow of candlelight, stood a magnificent mirror framed in gold. Intrigued by its beauty, she approached it, her delicate fingers tracing the intricate patterns carved into its frame. As she peered into the mirror, an image of a man appeared beside her reflection.
