Moonlit Silk Gown
Eighteenth-Century Whispers, Gauze of Ancient Tales
As I descended the grand staircase of Château de la Croix, the soft rustle of silk and the whisper of secrets seemed to blend with the midnight air. The candelabras lining the walls cast an ethereal glow, illuminating the intricate frescoes adorning the ceiling. I could hardly believe I was back in this enchanted world, where time seemed to have stood still since the roaring twenties.It had been nine years since I'd last set foot within these walls. Nine years since I'd heard the whispers of a centuries-old curse that had driven my family to flee this cursed estate.
