Submerged Land

The Scars She Hid From The World

The Scars She Hid From The World

REGINA MCBRIDE
The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.

Jay stood at the edge of a realm unlike anything he had ever imagined. Ersia, a world teeming with magic and untold wonders, beckoned him forward. As he took his first steps into this fantastical domain, a sense of awe washed over him. Lush greenery stretched as far as the eye could see, adorned with vibrant flowers that bloomed with otherworldly hues. The air hummed with an electric energy, carrying with it the whispers of ancient spells and the gentle rustle of unseen creatures.

In this extraordinary world, Jay discovered that science took a backseat to the seemingly impossible feats accomplished through the power of magic. His very existence had been transmigrated from his mundane reality into this realm of endless possibilities. It was a realm where the rules of nature were rewritten, where the ordinary became extraordinary.

Seeking guidance in this strange land, Jay embarked on a quest to find the elusive and enigmatic Mr. Dills. The tales of his wisdom and mastery of the arcane arts had reached Jay's ears, and he hoped that this mage would be the key to unlocking the secrets of Ersia.

Through dense forests and treacherous mountains, Jay pressed on, his determination unwavering. And finally, he found himself standing before a weathered cottage nestled amidst a grove of ancient trees. This humble abode was the home of Mr. Dills, the very person who would become Jay's guide in this mesmerizing realm.

The door creaked open, revealing a figure whose eyes held the weight of countless experiences. Mr. Dills' weathered face bore the marks of a life steeped in magic, his gaze piercing yet kind. With a single look, he seemed to understand the yearning within Jay, the thirst for knowledge that burned in his soul.
