Happy Mother's Day everyone! I want to
thank my Mom for helping me fight through this all, my epilepsy and
every other difficulty in my life. I love you. Now onto today's flash
fiction!
Memory Music
King Dallun and Queen Salleen had the
worst of dilemmas. A spiteful witch who envied the queen's beauty
cast a curse on their fourteen year old daughter so that at the end
of each day she would forget everything she saw that day. The witch
made sure that the curse was phrased so that the daughter would wake
up knowing that she was cursed so that she knew her fate at the end
of that day. The King and Queen sought the help of the great wizard
Exuyi.
He gave them a magic music box. The
princess would carry it and as the day went on it would play its
enchanted music. It could make the sounds any orchestra could and
more, even the sounds of singing angels. Though the curse would still
wipe her memories of everything she saw the music box preserved
everything by having everything copied by song into her mind. Each
detail associated with a note in a beautiful melody in the box. She
forgot everything she saw, but not all she heard. Most wizards would
have tried to break the curse, the great wizard Exuyi beat it.
Comment: I wrote this story special for
Mother's Day because I know much Mom loves music boxes.
