— A story meant to be felt, by Rosita.
For a thousand years, the people of Roselake have honored the Goddess of Beauty. Every year, during the month-long Festival of Roses, they place thousands of pink roses upon the lake, hoping to preserve the beauty within their hearts.
According to an ancient legend, the Goddess promised to return after one thousand years to see how her people were doing.
Tonight, that promise is fulfilled.
Beneath the full moon, the lake begins to glow. The floating roses gently move aside as a beautiful woman appears above the water. Her elegant figure floats beneath the moonlight, surrounded by sparkling pink petals and a soft magical glow.
The Goddess of Beauty has returned.
The villagers fall to their knees, finally witnessing the divine woman their ancestors have spoken of for generations.
Among them stands Adrian Vale, a 22-year-old young man holding a single pink rose. As the Goddess approaches, he knows exactly who she is.
Before Adrian can place his rose upon the water, she gently reaches out and accepts it herself.
For the first time in a thousand years, the Goddess has returned to the mortal world. She will remain in Roselake for the entire festival month.
But an ancient legend speaks of something extraordinary: if the Goddess ever falls truly in love, the pink roses will transform into sparkling rose gold.
And if she chooses a mortal as her eternal husband, he will ascend to godhood and stand beside her forever.
Neither Adrian nor the Goddess knows what destiny has prepared for them.
Perhaps this festival will become the beginning of a love that even eternity cannot contain.
