Strength watched the White castle from a cliff, a good five kilometer distance between her and the city. She turned, striding back to an empty clearing. Her feet tapped the monochrome tiles, all sound was absorbed by the vegetation around her. Her tain shifted from side to side, creating a soft yet comforting mechanical whirl. She reached and empty courtyard, over it was strewn with broken bits of marble, chess pieces. She walked to the sole structure in the courtyard, an abandoned bell tower.<br/><br/>As Strength entered, a soft tune was heard, thousands of music boxes lined the walls, the springs would go on for eternity, so said a plaque made by man himself. The tune was well known. When humans set foot in this world, they must conform to the correct amount of madness, not too much, not too little. This world was already perilous for those who live in it, much less humans.<br/><br/>Strength looked up as the tune began to play, each of the music boxes playing a different style, creating a disembodied voice which echoed within the tower.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">The first Alice was a wrathful woman of the Spade,<br/>And rightiously she held a sharpened blade within her hand,<br/>Never hesitating to slay all within her way,<br/>Creating paths of blood that followed her through Wonderland.<br/><br/>Deep into the forest Alice walked the line,<br/>Captured and imprisoned as an embodiment of Sin.<br/>If not for the murdurous wake left behind,<br/>No one would have suspected that she had ever been</span><br/><br/>Strength ascended the marble steps, one at a time, the tune recreating imprints on her mind.<br/><br/>Wind tugged her hood and she lowered it slowly, her eyes adjusting to the light. Today was the funeral of the dead Queen of Hearts. "Funny, I am still here, I should pay her a visit."<br/><br/>(Okay, small idea, Selena could have a mark appear on the back of a hand. The marks include, Spades, Diamond, Club, and Heart. This could ensure who sympathises with her later on.)
