Description

April 14, 1874 These days, I always feel a sense of dread when I see beauty. It always feels fleeting, like something the Friends were holding in reserve to destroy when the time is right. Hyde Park was a masterful park in the center of London. One that I would often visit in the before times. But it also harbored ghosts of traumas past. It was where I witnessed her. The woman who I could not escape in my dreams. The one I saw on The Day. The day everything changed. These wounds stayed with me until, upon the advice of a true friend, I decided I must attempt to put them to rest. I would return to Hyde Park. To try and reclaim such a beautiful space as my own. After a few weeks, this seemed to have its intended effect. I would find myself on these walks and realize I had lost track of time. Gazing, wondering—even smiling. Today, on one such walk, I saw a Friend wrapped in the most beautiful dress. It appeared that the blooming flowers of the ground merged with the intricate details of their skirt. I was so enamored with this sight that when I raised my eyes to see their face, I no longer saw something hideous. Crackled foreign green skin had turned into a natural growth of some sort. A lush statue, if you will. I imagined that the Friend was part of some whimsical landscaping. A mere experiment in the eye of a mischievous gardener. It was just a fantasy. But for a moment, it gave me peace. -CV
