Once upon a time was not so long ago. Birds were chirping, wolves howling, breeze blowing, Farnella’s mind running through the endless depths of time and tide as she contemplated the almost turquoise beach from her tiny balcony. The sky was not it’s usual golden-blue that day. Well, nothing was usual that day, remarked Farnella.

It all started with her dream — she woke up from the most unusual dream that day. In her dream, she was in another different planet. It had to be a different planet, for no place on Earth looked quite so…different. But that is not all. She met a lady (who, surprisingly, seemed like the older version of Farnella). And that was it. And a mere dream had the power to make the seven year old Farnella think about her future, her life, her destiny.

She had no idea what dress she was weaving with the threads of her life in that little house by the beach, but, much like a grown woman, she hoped her dress would turn out to be beautiful.
