A crystal ball? Was it a lamp?
Curiously, he held up the crystal ball. He vaguely remembered seeing it in her room earlier in the day, but he hadn't expected it to glow. Was it a lamp?
The actor examined the object but found no switch for the light source.
Well then… How did this crystal ball glow?
Studying this magical crystal ball, he suddenly noticed that there was a swirl of lingering mist within the ball. He gently placed his hand on the surface of the ball. The mist nimbly gathered itself at his palm. Through the thin crystal ball, it turned, condensed, and scattered as he moved his hand around the surface…
What was this!?He had never seen anything like this magical crystal ball. The mist inside seemed to have a soul.
Puzzled, he turned to look at Natalia who was lying in the bed. She was sleeping quietly beneath the covers, so quietly she seemed lifeless.
