so who is she?

the timeless girl has many names, and many different failed sketches, but she always remains the same.
like I was saying in the previous post, the timeless girl always watches.
she has been seen taking place at significant events, but also randomly with no apparent reason.

where is the timeless girl?
she does not age, she does not change,
everything around her dies, is reborn, changes, but she does not.
that is our main concern.

a person that can hop through time like that, or a person that is eternal, has the capacity of the butterfly effect. in other words, it has the ability to plan out everything, and, with a single gesture, over the span of centuries, could affect everything.

who is the timeless girl? where is she?
what we know exactly:
the timeless girl is of average height, not tall, not little. around 1.70.
the timeless girl has dark hair and dark eyes. deep, black eyes.
her skin is like a sheet of paper dipped in rose water. however romantic this might sound, it's the best description available. her skin is white but with a dash of life on it.

her hair is black and curly, long, just a hint over her lower back.
she's of European descent, her teeth are perfect white and her smile... her smile is apparently hypnotizing. once you look at it, you cannot look away.

I have dreamed of meeting this girl all my life.
she is, in any book, a physical representation of the eternal beauty so much sought by so many on this Earth.

what is her secret? what is her goal? who is she? who is the timeless girl?
have you heard about the timeless girl?

she goes by many names,
time after time, she has been seen, in history.
sometimes walked passed by, sometimes sat nearby, sometimes overhead, sometimes followed, but always, always, lost.
a lost, timeless girl.

she has been known to use a few names, such as Katja, Maya and Anna.
but she also used others, among which Isabella.

drawings of her have been found, depicting her as being Anastasia.
paintings and sketches of her, centuries from one another, depict her as being Aurora, Emma, Wanda, Regina, Katerina, Andreja, Sofia and others.

But who is she, really?
She has been seen increasingly over the past hundred years,
there are no photos, but information sharing has been made much more easier, this blog here stands to prove that.


My uncle never saw her before 1978 but my grand-father saw her in 1957 looking exactly the same.
He saw her in England, observing Marilyn Monroe from a great distance, while on the set for a movie. She seemed frozen in time, mesmerized like so many others at the time, by Monroe herself. This only proved  that she is human.
We had always thought he imagined, because he depicted the timeless girl as evaporating. Disappearing in an instant, beneath his very own eyes.

He saw her, she saw him. He blinked, felt a chill around him and she was gone. She had once again, disappeared instantly, without a trace, without a sound.

Yet, she is not a ghost. She is not an apparition. She is not an imaginary friend.
She is real, she is breathing and she possessions.

The only thing we have from her is half a page, from a book in her possession.
This is the story of that book.

In 1978 my grand-father and uncle saw her while on a trip in Venice.
They immediately, both, went speechless. They were sure it's her.

They followed her, in a hotel, they checked in the same hotel. They saw the registration book.
"Isabella R. Angelo" she wrote, with a handwriting as if it was pulled out of history itself. Elaborate, big, royal. An R that looked more like painted rather than written.

They had thought they finally know who she is, by the name, Italian.

They overheard her, in the bar of the same hotel, talking about long forgotten times with someone else, in Russian.

My uncle knows perfect Russian, being married to one himself helped a lot.
They followed her to a house and took a book from there after she left, which was written in Latin.

We never found them or heard of them again.
All we have found is my grand-father's journal, hidden, mentioning about all of this, and a small teared off page from that very old Latin book. That was the last we know of them.

The small fragment speaks nothing of her. We couldn't identify the text but it speaks of laws, regulations, punishments and human lives.

Since then, we've been careful.
Angel or demon, people disappear when getting to close. Loved ones vanish. Whether dead or in another place, we will never know. She is timeless, and her power is unknown.

This wasn't the first case,
Nor the last.

Nonetheless, we need to find the timeless girl.
Do you know her? Have you heard about the mystery of the timeless girl?
