I thought this was beautiful - I gave it a 7. I love the purple tone and the starbursts.

Her pain would last until the end of time.

She was a beautiful princess, that is how all stories like this go. Beautiful, smart, kind, beloved by all. That she earned the wrath of a jealous sorceress almost goes without saying, but I repeat it here. A sorceress of much renown in the land, heart turned twisted and evil by her seething envy.

So it was hardly with surprise that the princess was hunted down, tricked into an horrid plot, and transformed into a monstrous beast. Then, if that were not enough, after being tormented and hunted and beat and reviled by all the people of the land, the princess was chased to the sea and there changed into a thing of stone, for all to see, a humpbacked vision of pain and torture, head lifted in perpetuity to the heavens above in a plea that would never be answered.

This is where my story deviates from those that have gone before it. There was no handsome prince. No dwarves. No fairy godmothers. No Deus Ex Machina.

No, in this story the sorceress' envy won, and life discovered that sometimes evil does prevail over good. As for the Princess?

Her pain would last until the end of time.

Lovely colours, the "star" from the sun works well ... almost looks like a face in the rock with that as the eye.

Purple... interesting. I can't decide if I like it. I like the star filter look. (not voting yet)
