A short story

1) The Note
I will put you in a new place. Do not open your eyes yet. I have to adjust the light and the colour so that you can see where you are properly.
I can use words to tell you how this place is. So that you know before you open your eyes. So make sure your ears are open. Actually... Say something if you can hear me.

2) The Place
I wonder sometimes if I heard you right. However, seems like this is the place you were talking about. And coming of age is not impossible but indeed an ardous task here.
Were we given minds so they could be manipulated by or manipulate other minds?

I am short and I have long hair. You will not call me unkempt, but cluttered maybe.
