Magic Mirror
🕑 Added 2023-10-29 22:06:22 +0000 UTCThere's been a rumor spreading around town lately. Apparently, there's some sort of a magic mirror locked up in one of the crypts near town. They say if you find it and stare into it, your deepest desire will appear and it’ll make it a reality. It’s almost like getting a free wish. I of course didn’t believe it, a rumor in this town is a dime a dozen, most of them made by bored folk trying to get a kick or two. My friend Kent is pretty gullible, so of course he snuck in during the night to check it out. Imagine the look on my face when my old, skin and bones, five foot three friends came back as a massive six foot seven muscular knight. He kept flexing and showing off his new moves and of course his shiny expensive armor.
Merlin, our other friend, begged Kent to take us there. Kent kind of refused, saying he had to ride off to battle soon, so he could become a hero. He made us a little map for the crypt so we wouldn’t get lost like he did.
So the night came and we snuck down into the crypt, there were two lights, so we had to stop and make a torch. We did our best to follow Kent’s map, but it turned out to be completely wrong, so we tossed it away. We stumbled around for a couple of hours before we eventually found a mirror, whether or not it was the one we were after we would soon find out. Merlin decided he was going to go first and ran up to the mirror. He stood there for a minute, just staring into the mirror. I asked him if he was seeing anything but he simply ignored me. Suddenly he began to glow, shining so brightly I couldn't look in his direction. When the light vanished I looked back towards him, he was now wearing very exquisite robes. Similar to a wizard's getup. He suddenly started laughing like crazy, and then he started casting spells. Not just regular spells either, it was high-level magic, just like the wizards from Layke spend decades mastering.
I tried to praise him for his new powers and he turned towards me and looked at me with a sinister grin, and started laughing again. Then he teleported away. I suddenly found myself alone, in a dimly lit crypt with a magic mirror, that may or may not have just turned my friend crazy. I was tempted to just leave, but I was genuinely curious about what the mirror would show me. I’ve never really been one to desire things, like fame or power. I was always just okay with things as they were. Perhaps there was something I desired so deeply even though I didn’t know it, so I stepped in front of the mirror. I stood there for a minute just like Merlin did, then things started to shift in the reflection of the mirror. Once it finished moving it showed me an image of a woman. She had the same eye and hair color as me. Her hair though was super long. She was wearing a blue sweater, which didn’t do much to hide the shape of her breasts.
Her breasts were also a decent size, not too big and not too small, she also had a tiny waist. She was wearing tight pants, possibly made of latex or something similar, they were pretty tight. They crushed her thighs and hips, but overall it was a decent outfit and looked really good on her. She was just staring at me, I wasn’t too sure what the mirror was trying to show me. That's when another woman walked into the room in the mirror. The woman got happy and kissed her, the two hugged and began to brush their teeth together. That's when it hit me, the mirror was showing me a loving and healthy relationship. Something I had never had, it was something I had given up on, burying it deep down and forgetting all about it. Seeing this made me realize how desperately I wanted it.
That’s when things became dark for a moment. When the light came back I was standing in a bathroom, but not just any bathroom, it was the one from the mirror. I turned to the mirror in the bathroom, and just like seeing the same room, I was seeing the same woman.
This time though I was that woman. I inspected my body, I kept thinking I should be in shock of suddenly changing, but for some reason, I was super happy. Perhaps, being a woman was a part of my deepest desire as well, not that it matters now, it was my new reality. That day I got to know my new girlfriend. She is amazing and genuinely loves me unconditionally, and I think I love her just as much. She’s also the head of the College of Mages in Layke, so she makes a ton of money, so I no longer have to worry about working. So I spend most days doing everything I can to help her and keep her stress levels down. I easily adjusted to my new life with her in just a couple of months, and now I can say I’m way more than okay with my life, I wouldn’t change it for a thing. Everything turned out great for me, but my friends on the other hand weren't so lucky. Kent, turned a knight bound to be a hero. He went to a nearby kingdom that was in the middle of a heated war and got right in the middle of it. He tried to fight the entire army alone and died quickly, but for some reason after the war, he’s remembered as some sort of courageous hero. Merlin didn’t die like Kent, but he might be worse off. He pretty much lost his sanity the moment after receiving his powers. I think he lives in the woods somewhere, and he might even be kidnapping people. So seeing their fates, I feel entirely blessed, nothing like that has happened to me, maybe it has something to do with our desires. I suppose I wasn't as selfish or greedy as them, but who knows, I’m definitely not questioning it.
