Her body withered under the cold night sky and her eyes darkened with tears. As if the days have vanished, she stood silently under the sky of many lights, when at this moment, as she gazed at them, she always remembered the swinging sweetness of her husband, long gone and dried up.
"Master," She gazed upon her right, where a great master, clothed in fine cloaks stood silently, his being permitted powers and his body enveloped in golden light, blinding and overwhelming. Upon his right hand, a great golden staff, with power in the likeness of thunder cast fear and reverence into all beings. "Is it true that my life will become a tragedy, that my husband is not enough?" the lady wailed silently, and her eyes like that of a spring, her tears in the likeness of rivers.
The Master gazed at her but said nothing, he appeared to contemplate upon many things and the lady gazed again upon the stars, afraid of the answer."Your life is not of others, your tears will be remembered. Not a tragedy, but a hope for the future." that voice pierced through the night, and all animals fell silent, heeded unto that voice of Infinite wisdom. The lady smiled a little, finding comfort upon that mysterious words. She gazed again upon the Master, and her eyes stopped their cries. She felt peace overcome her, and the stars brighter.
"Is this your doing, Great Lord?" the Lady questioned, and again, the Master fell silent. As though the Master spot something behind her, the lady followed his gaze, and found that beautiful child, hid herself behind one of the pillars of their home, her eyes shone with outmost curiosity. "Mother," the child said silently, and the lady rose upon her feet and welcomed her unto her embrace.
The Master stood up also, and stepped silently upon the grass, his unimaginable robes fluttering in the night sky, the sound crisp and unique compared to the silence of the time. His hands glittering in light as gold as the heavens, and his eyes swirled like Universes, upon his head, that ever luminous crown. The lady gazed upon that great master, and still greatly awed by him for she never imagined such being, visited her in this ever-struggling life.
The master stood before the lady and her child, his stature overbearing, but his eyes shown compassion. He stretched out his hand and stroked softly the child's head. That child stood awed at the sight before him, for she never saw someone so luminous, so overwhelming, but at the same time, so warm and full of understanding. The lady gazed curiously upon the Master, for she saw that the Lord was calm, but that calmness was different, that calmness not of that before a storm, but of when someone find rest and grateful on all that will come upon them.
The lady's hand trembled silently and she put the child upon her lap, the Master stood beside her and was silent. "What about my child, what will become of her?" the Lady asked for the third time, and again the Master again answer her not. But, then the Master gazed upon the skies and the lady unconsciously did the same thing, and she noticed something different. The skies were golden and the stars shone in a Heavenly light, great creatures flew about in endless might and great beings of powers reign in the heavens.
Suddenly, great blasts and waves of Infinite powers overwhelmed all heavens, and in their stead stood a great and mighty angel, his wings are endless and crowns of great glories broke down the skies. Behind him, a greater angel appear, with four and eight wings and his eyes overwhelmed all things. The great angel pointed his sword upon that great Master, and the Master's eyes shone in overwhelming light. He gazed upon the lady and her child, casted down because of that waves of powers. He helped the two unto their feet and upon the child He smiled in warmth and affection. "They have spoken." The Master spoke in a voice never heard before, and the Lord point his staff upon the Great angel, who enveloped the skies with his powers. "Your Child will beheld a tree of great virtue, and she will strive for the sake of your name." In Great might He said to her and the lady, enveloped in a feeling that can not be explained as though she understood, hugged her child and put her in her lap. The lady closed her eyes and in tears thank the master again and again, the child in her arms, solemn as though fear was not in her.
Then, silence returned and the night sky was again in its place. The lady open her eyes and saw that the Master no longer there, and the trees fell again to sleep. "Elethe-Beth," the lady said unto her child, who then in curiosity raise up her head and saw her mother no longer in tears, but a new light was upon her face. "You heard the Master?" the Child nod her head slowly. "And you saw all those things?" again the Child nodded. "Then, we shall not be afraid, shall not again." the Lady hugged her child, and gazed upon the skies. Now, she saw her husband, not in sadness but in happiness, and she knew that the journey will be long, but not tiring as it was in the past.
