The Cave Part 11
Darkness, and the countless points of light, as if the entire void beyond was filled with the fire of a million stars. I felt as if I was staring into the eternity of a night sky beyond those wooden doors, the place beyond the actual reality, while I stood behind a curtain of scenery, the mountain and sky a mere pretense. And in that void beyond of unfathomable space, there hung suspended a mighty shard of crystal floating in place, with hundreds of a far smaller chunks orbiting around it in balanced but intersecting circles, no two in the same path. These caught the light from the center, and sparkled with inner fire each.

Gosh this was extreme powerful! Well done!
I like this. So simple yet meaningful <3
Such a punch with so few syllables 🤜
Supposedly to save their souls. In reality, to protect the status quo & power structures in place. The return of the Sanderson sisters? Will someone be lighting a black candle? No, patriarchy will finally come to an end. But what will replace it?
this is so powerful. well done!
