Oh Look!

A Story by SephiPiderWitch

Oh Look!

Oh look! Yes you! Come here! Just a quick peek beyond the curtain and the world will never be the same again. Come closer! Just one more wee step. Here, let me help you. I’ll part the veil just the slightest bit. Oh look! Can you glimpse what is beyond? Just one step closer and more shall be revealed. You do want to see more, don’t you? Oh look! That flash of a

unicorn galloping past! Did you see her? Like a flash of starlight streaking across the land. And there. Right over there! A field of fairies at play. Aren’t they just lovely to behold? More to see there is if you but move a bit closer. Oh look! A Phoenix bursting into the air from the flames! His colours so bright they almost make your eyes ache. Watch as he soars up into the heavens, his magnificent tail trailing ribbons of flames behind him. Wasn’t that just glorious? There is so much more to see, but you are still too far away.Won’t you come just a little closer? Oh look! Off in the corner, did you see the galaxies collide? Watch as their remains cascade across the heavens and look deeply into the blackness of the void they leave behind. There are universes beyond imagination just past this curtain. Would you miss a moment of it? I see you still hesitate. Come now, you are almost there. Oh look!A griffin making off with a beaste of the fields, a dragon rending its prey. Spirits and demons and fantastickal creatures to inspire and terrify your soul! Oh no! Don’t step back! They are but dreams and cannot hurt you! Come back! Oh look again! Beauty beyond compare! Lands of swirling colors, blooms of intoxicating scent! See? There is no need to fear! That’s it! Come closer. Oh look! A beauty that fantasies are envious of! Her skin so perfect, her face so fair. Her eyes look on you with the desires of lifetimes of searching. Look how she reaches to you! Can you resist her look and the chance to touch her hand? Oh look! She is calling you, drawing you, imploring you. Can you still refuse? Oh good! Go with her. How does it feel within? What?!You say she has talons and smells of death? She has pierced your flesh and is chaining you! What? You are afraid? You feel pain? You feel darkness closing in? You have changed your mind and want to leave now?
