In the concealed chamber, the circular shadow, cleaved from Elv's own, lay motionless upon the room's floor. Gradually, it began to sway and ripple, reminiscent of the ocean's gentle waves lapping against the shore.
A slow transformation took hold, and the shadow assumed the guise of a young girl, its figure gracefully contorting like a dancer in a fluid, ethereal ballet. It was a mesmerising yet uncanny alteration.
As the figure of the little girl took shape, it remained tethered to the floor. With a distinctive "pluck," it detached from the ground, ascending into an upright position. The haunting sound resonated throughout the room, leaving an eerie echo in its wake.
