Turning the knob, Elise pulled the door in a rush and at once, her shadows came from underneath her to enter the room, holding whoever it was inside the room. Making haste, Elise entered the room. She only narrow her eyes when she saw how her shadow had managed to hold nothing and the room was empty.
"Shadow," Elise called. The blob of blackness immediately took form of a small chick. "Did you also heard the song?"
The shadow nodded. In incoherent voice and layered whispers, it stated, "..y...yes, milady... we had also heard it once before when you were led by the melody."
"During that time the whispers were you," Elise said in epiphany. It finally dawned to her the ghost-like voice that had warned her not to follow the song and that it was dangerous was the shadows' voice.
