Sunlight shines through a skylight overhead, filtered and refracted by a blue diamond as great around as an aged tree. The crazed patterns are broken by a woman inside the diamond, suspended as if she had just stepped from a height but had not yet begun to truly fall.
She wears a gown made of long, tapered leaves, buttoned with seed cases and hemmed with stems. Twigs and buds embroider the bottom of the long skirt and draping sleeves with random, viney patterns. Her skin is brown, with darker lines like the ridges in bark. Her feet are bare, a golden chain about one ankle with a purple flower as accent. Her hair is white and silky at the roots, standing up into a nest of floating down,like some seed adrift. She has her hands folded in front of her just below her chin, her gaze looking for someone that has been missed for some time. A necklace of white buds, tightly closed, rests loosely on the bare skin at her neck.
It's difficult to tell the color of her eyes. Maybe they're the same blue as the diamond. Maybe they're pale, colorless.
