179 I was also a pawn

"Ha!" Kresi lets out a snicker. "What a joke!"

As far as she can see, all she can see is black

The water is black. The sky is black. Everything except for herself is black.

At the horizon, the endless sea and the sky meet.

She looks at her hands. Her missing hand is back. No, it's not even her body. Kresi looks at her reflection calmly. A pair of arctic blue eyes stare back at her.

The place is strange. Though there's only darkness here, she can see her reflection.

Her height has decreased by a few inches. Her hair is long and completely white. She's dressed in a white robe. Her skin is white and chalky, dead and lacking a certain lustre. Her rosy lips have turned vermillion red.

This is her true appearance. 

"I was also sent to that world then." Kresi bends down on her knees and moves her fingers in the water, causing ripples in the black water. "I should have guessed it."
