Everyone at her birthday party was shocked at how she had aged in the last year. No one would ever tell her that of course, so even though Artesia had dressed in her most beautiful gown, she could not hide her signs of aging. Her body, once succulent, and full of life, was now stooped and dry. Her most tasty parts had been devoured, eventually disappeared through time, leaving her to hang on the vine, no longer palatable.
