Stress lived alone for a long time, with no partner to call her own. She was a reader and wasn't shy about it. She read many books, she used those books to go to a world she wished she lived in. A world of magic and wonders. But there was a specific person in a book that she loved. They're name was Iskall. She had fallen in love with them, she didn't care what they looked like. They a hunter and they had a love for plants, just like Stress.

••••••••••••••••••••••••

One day Stress was in her garden, tending to her favourite flower, the purple allium. She was busy digging through dirt and cutting off the dead leaves and putting it in the dirt, she heard a doorbell. She dropped everything and walked to the front door. She opened it only to find...

"Hallo? Is this the cottage of Stress?"

Stress was silent, She stared at the visitor in front of her.

"Yes, and who are you?"

"My name is Iskall, you're my favourite character in my favourite book"

"I- I'm not in any book"

"Ah, but you are"

"But you're in a book too"

"Am not"

"You are, I've read the book over a hundred times"

Silence came between them.

"Why don't you come in?"

Stress said, Iskall walking in after her.

After a few minutes of sitting on the back porch, the sun was setting and Stress couldn't help but break the silence.

"Why did you come here?"

"To stop the end"

"The end of what?"

"The end of the book"

"What happens at the end of the book?"

Iskall was silent as they turned away. Despite not saying anything Stress was able to understand.

"Oh..."

"Yea...."

"How will you stop it?"

"I'm taking you home"

"Wh-what?!"

"Yes, I'm taking you to my realm"

"But I belong here!"

"But you're not happy, Stress!"

Iskall was right, she wasn't happy, she wasn't living the way she wanted to.

"Okay, I'll go"

"Yes!"

"Not because I should, but because I want to"

Iskall smiled and opened a portal in her wall with a snap.

"Wait, won't I be needing my stuff?"

"No, I set up everything for you there"

Iskall grabbed her hand and she blushed.

And they both jumped into the purple portal together.

••••••••••••••••••••••••

She woke up, She was laying down staring at the trees above. The god-rays shone through the vines and trees. Stress sat up. She heard music and smelled a wonderful smell of a delicious feast, she was hungry.

"Do you want some help?" Iskall asked as they stuck out they're hand to stress.

"Uh, yea" She took they're hand as she blushed.

She stood and looked around, people were walking around in the forest. Some in duos and trios and some alone.

A cybernetic creeper and a werewolf hybrid were walking next to eachother and laughing.

A blonde woman, a ginger deer and a brunette walked together.

A ginger zombie and a brown haired man walked together with their hands intertwined.

A moustached man carried a short brunette with a red jumper on.

All of these people walked to a specific place.

"Where are they all going?"

"To the festival"

Stress looked at them all walking, they were happy. And now she was too. She smiled to herself, then looked at the love of her life.

Iskall spoke.

"Well, are you ready to start your new life?"

"I'm more ready than I'll ever be"

She grabbed Iskall's hand.

A smile appeared on her face.

Happy.
