A young woman, painfully familiar, stands in the shadows of her origins. The tower was miraculously still standing depsite the years. Beneath the weak winter sun, the structure rose in stark isolation - tall and narrow. Its silhouette cut sharply against the sky, like her blade turned upright. It had been abandoned ever since that fateful day when Diva tried to take control of her own life, standing empty ever since - timeless, forgotten by everyone except nature.
Once upon a time, she might've looked upon the tower were she was kept prisoner and felt her blood burn with rage. Once upon a time, she might've destroyed it with her bare hands, erasing any evidence that she was ever weak, leaving nothing but rubble and ruin in her wake.
But she was older now, and the rage did not come. Instead, she felt... nothing. The woman shehad been was not the woman who stood in the tower's shadows now. She was jaded, colder, sharper - as was natural for a Queen left to fend for herself for decades.
"Perhaps it's time for a makeover," Diva mused as she stepped forward, heel clacking against the stone path.
