Our musical story has been getting a little scary, with the mirrors behaving oddly and the shadows looming. But now...the strange images fade from the mirrors, replaced by...
...a landscape featuring a far-off mountain?
Your reflection is no longer visible at all, nor is any of the other creepy stuff that was leaking out of the mirrors a moment ago. Now it's all very "Look at the magic mirror world. You want this, yes? YOU REALLY WANT THIS, YES?"
You do not trust it.
The girl next door has not had your experience of magical adventures. She thinks it looks very inviting. You clash a bit, and so does the kalimba music.
At the end of the piece, the girl reaches out towards the mirror.
And...
...I guess I'll see you tomorrow.
Instrument Note: I have a few kalimbas and a mbira, but this particular instrument has chromatic notes and thus a lot of potential for fun discord.

I like the simplicity of the kalimba and also when it slows down for a moment before it goes to a faster pace at 2.21, it's almost like it's trying to enchant the characters. that is one shady sketchy lol. I wouldn't trust it either

Wow, this is lovely. It's such an evocative instrument and played beautifully.
I came here via the random song button, so I have stumbled in at the wrong end of the story - I will have to start from the beginning...
@wazylizard did daily improvised pieces last year and they were one of my absolute highlights.
