Rory's mind was racing as she left the laboratory. What did the message mean? What truth was Aidan hiding from her?
She couldn't shake the feeling that she was getting close to something big. Something that could change everything.
As she walked home, Rory's thoughts turned to the tapestry she had been working on. The one with the strange symbols and threads that seemed to shimmer and glow.
She had always felt like there was something special about that tapestry. Something that sets it apart from all the others.
And now, she was beginning to realize that it might be more than just a feeling. That might be a clue.
Rory quickened her pace, her heart pounding with excitement. She couldn't wait to get home and examine the tapestry more closely.
As she burst through the door, Rory's eyes landed on the tapestry which was still stretched out on her loom. She rushed over to it, her fingers tracing the intricate patterns and symbols.
And then, she saw it. A small, almost imperceptible thread that seemed to be woven into the very fabric of the tapestry.
Rory's heart skipped a beat as she realized the significance of the thread. It was the same thread that Aidan had been studying. The same thread that seemed to hold the key to unlocking the secrets of her past.
Without hesitation, Rory began to weave the thread into a new pattern. A pattern that seemed to be emerging from the very fabric of the tapestry itself.
As she worked, Rory felt a strange sensation building inside of her. It was as if the threads were coming alive, weaving themselves into a new and mysterious pattern.
And then, just as suddenly as it had begun, the sensation stopped. Rory looked down at the tapestry, and her eyes widened in amazement.
The threads had formed a new pattern. A pattern that seemed to be pointing to a specific location.
Rory's heart was racing as she realized the significance of the pattern. It was a map. A map that seemed to be leading her to a place she had never been before.
As Rory examined the map, she noticed that it seemed to be pointing to a location on the outskirts of town. She felt a shiver run down her spine as she realized that she might be getting close to uncovering the truth about her past.
With a sense of determination, Rory set out to follow the map. She walked for what felt like hours, the threads of the tapestry seeming to guide her every step of the way.
Finally, she arrived at a small, dilapidated cottage on the outskirts of town. The cottage seemed abandoned, but Rory could sense that something was off.
She cautiously approached the cottage, her heart pounding in her chest. As she reached out to touch the door handle, she felt a sudden jolt of electricity.
The door creaked open, and Rory stepped inside. The cottage was dark and musty, but she could sense that she was getting close to something important.
And then, she saw it. A small, leather-bound book was lying on a nearby table. The book seemed old and worn, but Rory could sense that it held the key to unlocking the secrets of her past.
