A hush lay over the dawnlit plain as the traveler approached the massive, cracked sphere of glass. It rose from the earth like a relic of an age so distant that all but the oldest songs had forgotten it. The sphere’s shattered edges shimmered in the morning light, jagged as broken knives, and yet adorned with waterfalls that ran like tears along the fractures. A single mighty tree twined its roots around the smooth glass, as though refusing to let the secrets within succumb to time’s decay.
They said this sphere once housed the dreams of a nameless king—dreams of unity, of kingdoms without war, of fields forever in bloom. But, like so many high-born ambitions, those visions had splintered against the harshness of the world. The traveler was no fool; they knew that such legends were woven with half-truths and fancy. Yet still they came, drawn by whispers that something precious lingered inside. No lords or knights followed, only the heavy hush of a land waiting on the edge of magic.
The tree’s gnarled branches arched overhead as the traveler stepped through the broken shell, boots echoing on a winding pathway leading into a new morning. Wildflowers swayed, and beyond them the sun rose, painting the sky in reds and golds. Within that glowing heart of the sphere, the traveler glimpsed glimpses of lush meadows, shimmering waterfalls, and the memory of a once-proud realm. Perhaps it was destiny, or the mere folly of hope, but they pressed on—toward whatever wonder or ruin beckoned beyond the threshold of that fractured dream. And in that silent dawn, the sphere seemed to draw breath, as if ready to speak its secrets to any who dared to listen.
