Invidia
Eyfira I-Seosha twirls around for me to see. The moonlight breaks through the curtains of the palace, draping across her bare, round shoulders and the glowing pearl necklace that rests on her creamy collarbone. She wears a royal gown, dyed with a rare purple that calls to mind a dusk fading into the night. They match the shade of her eyes perfectly; eyes that glitter because she knows how beautiful she looks already. To her, it is not vanity. It is simply the truth. At her hips, the fabric takes flight, gracefully fluttering around her slender legs like ribbons of mist. A silvery-white, ornate pendant in the shape of a butterfly adorns her waist. The insignia of the Monarch. The Empress. Her mother. She confidently tosses her dark auburn hair, clipped with a sparkling diamond ornament I bought her at the local market. She looks back at me, the corners of her full lips curling up ever so slightly.

The Conductor
The Conductor paused, using his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his brow before shoveling the last of the coal into the firebox. Hot steam and smoke rose in black clouds around him. A layer of soot stained his white clothing and dark brown skin. He finally set down the shovel, exhaling deeply. His arms burned and his back ached. No one else worked with him, so he had to run the train by himself.
