The midnight chimes began to ring.
A shadow was looming in darkened corridors.
The hem of white nightgown swept over the floor, hiding cautious footsteps that blended well into the quiet darkness and the steps halted only when it arrived in front of a room among many rooms that laid out on the left and right side.
A dull click sound signaling the door open cracked the stillness that was lullaby by the caress of the night, making the movement to pause and resumed after the stillness was back to lull in the dimness.
Once the door cautiously pushed open, a figure was found laying alone on the bed inside the dim, spacious room.
The curtain on the window was not withdrawn closed, letting the moonlight to blend harmoniously with the warm illumination of the flame from the fireplace.
