A universe of dimensions, a cycle of exchange and a princess caught up in this cycle. On Avyanna's 18 birthday she knows her life's going to change. In fact, it's what she has prepared for her whole life. And one jump from the portal is all it takes. She used to wish for this moment, she used to pray it would come sooner, but when the time's finally here, she isn't so sure anymore. Is she really ready to leave everything she ever knew and loved behind and be taken to a foreign dimension. To be honest, she really doesn't know the answer to that and besides it's not like she has any say in any of this. But Avyanna does know one thing for sure. She's resilient and she will always stay that way. An entry to the 'stairway to another world' fictional writing competition. Enjoy.
