The Shadow's Whisper

In the heart of muted darkness, where dreams are but whispers on the edge of light,
lies the unraveling tale of the treasure that never was.
Beneath starlit canvases etched in secrets, forever untold and unclaimed,
echoes a treasure hidden in the recollection of forgotten paths.

Seek not with eyes, for they deceive in daylight's rule.
Listen instead to the desolate symphony of a breeze, guiding footsteps astray.
Inhale the essence of soul-bound ink, scribed on maps lost to time:
to maps, to echoes, to truths.

Here, where sand meets ashes, lies the ashes of paths trodden by those who found not, who sought not the prize,
but the journey itself a reflection and a shadow.
The treasure is veiled in memory; the echoes call through halls of an eternity spun in stars.
