Nothing ever changes in a life lived in the outskirts of the city, and especially not for Amelia Dreisse. Average, plain, and ordinary art, the child casted into the shadows, hiding from the breech of light that constantly burned. She took refuge in one thing and one dream only: art. Beauty, she saw, was in simplicity, and in simplicity you had beauty. But what happens when the colors that stand so vibrant on canvas begin to dull, and the traces of imagination that spark to whisper their desires to the strongest of imaginations begins to engulf you, consume you? Become you. Because what was once a fantasy is now a reality, and what once were blank pages surround you in physical means, enticing you with their beauty, but stealing from you your heart's wishes. They were just a figment of her imagination. A drawing upon a page. But now, they are so much more. Curiosity had killed the cat, after all, but her death would be a much more painful encounter.
