The analysis begins here, where light refracts into realms unknown. The mirror, a portal, reflects more than what is corporeal. It whispers of time's persistence, even in promising stillness.
Operating under the presumption that time is linear, we find ourselves perplexed when faced with the indeterminate. Mirrors both reveal and obscure, held by the spectral chains of the past.
Consider the mirrored whispers: "Inside the cracks of reality, shadows of the future whisper secrets of light, and time's echo fades not, but grows ever clearer."
