The girl in the lake... or the fairy in the lake. This is an important character that appears in this series of Prith folk tales. In countless fairy tales, she helps the king to achieve the throne, helps the infatuated people to find love, teases the pretentious, punishes the greedy and mean, and warns the blinded...
The image of the Fairy of the Lake has appeared frequently in various legends throughout the Plit. Although the Radiant Church deliberately stifled and transformed the spread of this legend and intentionally removed the influence of the Fairy of the Lake during its missionary work, the legend of the Fairy of the Lake is almost rooted in the culture of the Plit people. Even after several decades of transformation, there are still many remnants. In today's Plit, although the legend of the Fairy of the Lake has almost disappeared in big cities, her legend is still circulating in small towns and rural areas. Dorothy often heard it when she was a child.
For ordinary people, the story of the Fairy of the Lake is just a story. However, those who have studied the secret history of Plit know that the prototype of the Fairy of the Lake comes from the Goddess of Mirror Moon, the main god of the mainstream belief in this land. Since the beginning of the Fourth Epoch, the Radiant Cult has been committed to eradicating the myth of Mirror Moon from this land.
However, how can such a deep belief be easily washed away? After the belief in the Mirror Moon Goddess was forcibly stripped of its religious and mythological colors, it did not disappear. Instead, it was transformed into the image of the Fairy of the Lake and spread throughout the Pritt. The people of Pritt did not want to forget their god, but they did not dare to directly confront the powerful Church of Radiance. Therefore, they could only transform the Mirror Moon Goddess into the image of the Fairy of the Lake and continue to keep it in their hearts and believe in it silently. However, nothing can withstand the erosion of time. At the beginning, the Fairy of the Lake was a legend that replaced the myth in the hearts of the Pritt people, but later it became just a legend...
However, it was precisely because it was a legend that Dorothy could use it. At this moment, Dorothy recited the countless legends of the lake fairies that Barrett had collected from various places in Pritt, extracted the images in them, and tried to use them to materialize the ability of a mysterious writer.
As Dorothy recited one legend after another about the fairy in the lake at a very high speed, semi-transparent threads of nothingness emerged in the air between the balanced figures, slowly gathered together, and slowly weaved into the image of a girl.
Dorothy is using the legend to weave a body for the Lady of the Lake. The spread of one legend is not enough, so countless different legends need to be overlapped on everything to extract the unity among them. At this moment, Dorothy is using all the remnants of the Lady of the Lake legend in the entire territory of Pritt as a basis to materialize an anecdotal body of the Lady of the Lake to fight against Gsmore.
Of course, it is still difficult to defeat Gsmore with just such an anecdote body, but Dorothy knows that it will eventually become more than just a simple anecdote body.
Finally, Dorothy finished reading the last story, and the anecdote she had woven finally took shape. It was a girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, floating in the air. She was wearing a long white veil, had snow-white skin and long silver hair, was barefoot and her face was blurred.
Facing the anecdotal body that she had spent a lot of effort to create, Dorothy did not rush to indulge herself. Instead, she stood up silently, raised her head and looked at the dome in the sky. Through the opening in the center of the dome, she gazed at the full moon in the sky.
"Empress of the Night Sky... I have created the greatest value for you to remain in Pritt. If you are really looking at this, you should be able to do something with this..."
Looking up at the moon in the sky, Dorothy murmured that what she was thinking about at this moment was the soft silver light she had seen in a trance when she was unconscious in the promotion ceremony not long ago. She thought that this silver light must have an owner.
After Dorothy finished speaking, there were sudden movements all around. The ground began to shake violently, and the entire Mirror Moon Golem began to tremble unnaturally.
"What…"
Aldrich, who was controlling the Mirror Moon Golem, suddenly found that he had lost control of it in an instant. The huge golem, which had collapsed in the shallow water, automatically floated up under the influence of a mysterious force and began to transform again. The hands and feet began to shrink automatically, and the entire Mirror Moon Church began to transform rapidly.
"Whose power is this?"
Looking at all this, Aldridge couldn't help but mutter in surprise, while on the other side, Gasmore gritted his teeth and sped up when he saw this scene.
"Don't try to do anything stupid again!"
At incredible speed, the Mirror Moon Golem changed back to its original church shape. It did not immediately return to the surface of the lake, but floated above the lake, bathing in the moonlight in the sky.
The balance room where Dorothy was suddenly turned back into a chapel. In it, she was shocked to see wisps of soft silver light descending from the opening of the church dome, surrounding the anecdotal body created by Dorothy, and then seeping into it.
Afterwards, a faint silver light appeared on the body of the Fairy of the Lake, and her originally blurry face quickly became clear. It was the same face as the statue in the chapel, and Dorothy's face was almost identical.
After having a face, the body of the fairy in the lake slowly turned around and looked at Dorothy who was surprised. She spoke slowly, and a voice that was cold and made Dorothy feel extremely at ease.
“For divinity, the gathering of stories can only be a bond that strengthens connection, but cannot be a container for extension.”
Dorothy was slightly startled by the words that seemed to soothe her soul, and then she spoke.
"So, what is a container?"
Dorothy asked the existence in front of her like this, and then she just smiled slightly, and then her whole body suddenly completely disintegrated and turned into more silver light, converging towards Dorothy.
Before Dorothy could react, she was surrounded by silver light. At this moment, her consciousness went blank.
In her empty consciousness, Dorothy saw her body slowly rising up in the entanglement of silver light. Under the strange power, her original clothes were slowly hidden, and her long silver hair was spread out. Her originally petite body was growing rapidly, and it seemed to the naked eye that she had grown three or four years older.
The silver light that enveloped Dorothy turned into pieces of gauze that were draped over her body, covering her naked body. Dorothy saw that her skin was gradually becoming as crystal clear as a crystal mirror. Her body began to undergo some mysterious changes, especially the outer layer of the skin was breaking away from the realm of flesh and blood, turning into a mirror with countless edges and corners.
"boom!"
At this moment, the chapel's originally tightly closed door shattered with a loud bang, and a shadow that was too fast to be seen by the naked eye broke into the hall and rushed towards the silver halo suspended in the air!
“Die!”
Holding a long, sharp blood thorn, Gusmore rushed into the halo and stabbed the blood thorn in his hand into the icy and mirror-like body, intending to pierce it completely.
However, just as Gosmore's blood thorn was about to pierce the enemy, a boundless darkness suddenly spread out in front of her, engulfing everything around it.
