It was early morning, the whole castle itself was filled with a gentle silence, with only the synchronized sounds of the crickets inhabiting the serene halls of the night. Within the bedroom, Rose sleeps as she held her child, Rosemary, close to her. The child, wrapped around in Rose's noodle arms, sucked on the tip of her mother's appendages like a pacifier. Rose laid peacefully in her slumber, yet is visibly exhausted from taking care of her child, for her eye bags creased below her eyelids. Motherhood was a lot more difficult and exhausting than how the others described it. The entire ordeal was complex and extra precautions had to be made in order to take care of mage's "Bundle of Joy". In fact, Rose had to wear a soft, pink sweater in order to protect Rosemary from her many thorns. Nevertheless, the room was peaceful and the air stood still, as if it were enjoying such a quiet moment. All of a sudden, a loud shriek erupted from Rosemary and rattled the air as well, Rose jumped from the sudden crying as it was a nightmare.. A tiny and round nightmare.
