The World Tree

Joanna opened her eyes. The first thing that leaped into her eyes was a flourishing forest.

At the same time, in the depths of her mind, the connection between her and her original self tightened.

In a remote place far, far away, someone opened her crystal-clear eyes all of a sudden.

"Is she here…?" she murmured.

At the same time, in this boundless, thriving forest, the beautiful girl's eyes were kindling in excitement. Having returned to this familiar environment, she felt all of her bodily cells had been activated and the energy inside of her was surging.

It was as if she could finally drink water after enduring thirst for a long time.

She felt better than ever before. That was the world she belonged to.

The air in that crappy store was terrible, awful!
