The weather was bright and cheerful, and there wasn't a cloud to be seen in the sky. If there were birds in this island, no doubt they would be singing. But instead a slight breeze blew across the island, moving from the water and flowing through the forest. As they blew through the forest they picked up traces of pollen, carrying them through the air, and blowing through the school grounds. With many of the window's open to let the cooling breeze blow through, the school was currently a nightmare for anyone with an allergy.

Or at least, most of it was. On one side of the school that bordered the forest, something much deeper in the forest had caused a windbreak, and the air here was stuffy and still. It was hotter thanks to the lack of the breeze ... but that highly irritating pollen that had swept through the school and classes was no-where to be found. There was nothing remarkable about this part of the school, or the forest beyond. Or at least, nothing remarkable that could be seen. However a closer inspection of the forest would reveal a small worn trail that, rather than being made deliberately, looked more like a game trail ... if the game happened to be innocent, naive (or in many cases not so innocent or naive) young human females. It led into the forest, making it obvious that others had found out the wind didn't hit this particular spot, and had gone to investigate just why.

Alecia Breathed a sigh of relief as it seemed her allergies were beginning to subside. She placed her hands on her knees, gripping the soft grey fabric of her yoga pants. She was hoping that being this far from home her allergies wouldn't be aggravated this was not the case. Her flaxen hair pulled behind her in a pony tail she brushed the bound length of hair back behind her as she stood straight up. Her light grey tank top stretching as the garment was pulled taught against her body accenting her slender waist and seeming to slightly strain against her bosom. The perky orbs of attraction slightly large for a girl her size and build.

She looked up and around at the clearing. The island was beautiful and the weather always perfectly warm. The breeze today made her want to go out for a jog so she took a hike through the nearby forest following what appeared to be a beaten path in the wood. Something odd struck her, speaking of the breeze the angelic young woman noticed that the air here was different. Slightly more humid, and even more odd it appears the breeze that had accompanied her moments ago was completely gone.

"What the..." she spoke aloud to herself, her voice light and gentle. Twin emeralds set into her radiant face gazed around, the tops of the trees around the clearing were moving with the breeze but the clearing itself held no wind. She slowly began to make her way closer and eventually into the clearing itself.

There was something unnatural about the clearing. It was a perfect circle for one, and the grass inside it had no indication that it had been cut ... But was somehow still perfectly maintained at the exact same length. The 'wind' blowing the tops of the trees around was likewise odd, and it was almost as if it was orbiting the clearing in a clockwise direction.

Of course that unnaturalness was only more pronounced when Alecia stepped into the clearing. For a moment light erupted at a blinding intensity all around her, forcing the human to close her eyes for a moment. When she reopened them the world around her had changed. She no longer was in a small clearing in a forrest ... But was instead standing on the edge of a massive garden, that stretched on in three directions. A path was under the student's feet, and it split into three directions, forward, left and right.

Behind Alecia was a chest high 'wall' of golden light, that curved slightly and stretched out as far as the eye could see, completely encasing the garden. The paths that Alecia was standing on seemed to be made of golden bricks. The flowers around her were all colours and hues, some natural, some unnatural colours ... But all of them strikingly beautiful, in their own unique way.

Alecia looked around awestruck. Something twinged at the back of her mind, but she was dazzled by the vibrant colors of all the flowers. A collage of radiance of which she has never seen. The lovely young woman, almost as if in a daze, began walking slowly along the golden road, She hadn't even noticed the wall of light behind her.

The heavenly student brushed her flaxen hair behind her ears as the breeze would move it around her face. She chose the left path as she moved, her hips swaying with her demure stride.
