In the dim depths of the sea, the golden-glowing Little Elf relentlessly pressed its questions. A woman sat slumped to the side, weeping silently.
Her teardrops fell through the deep sea water, yet did not merge with it.
The Little Elf recited her innermost desires, devoid of all emotion.
It was the ultimate desire, and also the ultimate pain.
Only what you yearn for but cannot have becomes a wish.
The woman clapped her hands over her ears in agony, but the Little Elf's voice still pierced her eardrums. What once was a heavenly sound was now like a devil's whisper.
After emotionlessly reciting the woman's inner thoughts, the Little Elf stared at her coldly for a long time.
"I will grant your wish, just as you've described."
"I will let you escape from here."
The Little Elf raised its hand and placed a necklace around the woman's neck.
The moment it was on, the necklace began to tremble. A flash of light engulfed the woman, and in an instant, she vanished.
