Day 3 Complete

You fall asleep on a bed of clouds.

Something slowly urges you awake. You open your eyes, but when you look around yourself, your bedroom is nowhere to be seen. You're laying in a bed within a white void. All around the area are people on their knees bowing, and not far away from the foot of your bed is a throne. It isn't empty either.

Sitting upon the throne is the most beautiful woman you've ever seen, garbed in a plain white dress. Even with a wardrobe so simple, you can't take your eyes off her. There's an incredibly power in everything she does--her glance, her pose, and even her subtle movements. You nearly want to drop to your knees like the rest of them, but you stand your ground due to a strange, warm comfort you feel as well. It beckons you forwards, so you crawl out of bed and walk.

You stand before what feels like a queen, and wonder if this is real.

"Where am I?" you speak. Your voice echoes.

"You are not anywhere, dear." The voice came from the woman, but her mouth didn't move.

"Then who are you?"

"I have been called many names throughout the ages. A concept, is what I am. More than just a person, but instead, a Goddess of Beauty... of Love, Desire, Sex, and more. That is what I am, but that is not all."

"Goddess... So like Venus? Aphrodite?"

"You may call me whatever you wish. It matters little, dear. There always is a Goddess."

"I don't understand."

"There is nobody here. You speak only to yourself. You must accept what has been done, as your destiny has been chosen. Stand proud, dear. You are more than a woman, and you must embrace that fact with pride. Every time it is different. Perhaps you will do little. Or, your effect on the world will be substantial. That is up to you."

"I don't understand."

"I believe you do." The woman stands up from her seat, and steps over to meet you face-to-face. She raises a hand to your cheek, and it feels warm. "How you act is your decision, but be careful. You are powerful indeed. You always have been."

Before you can open your mouth to speak again, everything goes white, and you remember nothing else. Yet another night of your new life passes.

Another day complete. This one took awhile to finish. A few things from earlier in the story have started coming up again, so I hope you enjoyed that, as that'll be the trend from now on. If you want, feel free to start again and try a different route as well. Feel free to suggest ideas in the comments. I hope I can find time to return to this story often enough to release occasional full-day updates!
