The Shoe

Summary:
A young man is kidnapped away to an ancient hidden palace to try on a supposedly magic shoe.
Written for: A sentence prompt posted on Tumblr by Writeworld: "The shoe didn’t fit him either."
UPDATE: Now published by JayHenge Publishing.
Notes:
The beginnings of this started forming right when I saw the prompt post. I wrote the first half of it before realizing I didn't want to do one of those unsatisfyingly dramatic endings one sees in so many of the trendy sci-fi and fantasy mags, but that meant I had to come up with an ending - of course the Muse threw several at me. So, I would like to thank Lady Karasu for helping me decide on which ending to use, as well as giving all of it a read-through to see if it was okay. <3 Any errors are mine.
