The Roar of Renewal
They came in a flash. Glances of what came before, glimpses of what would come after. Ages where the world was newly awakened, thrashing spasms echoing through the void. The celestial lights reawakening an ancient universe, instilling soul into hollow masses. The eternal dark that preceded it, shrouded the whole of the cosmos in an endless umbra. Then back to the great, living planet, full of chaotic life. The great usurpation, the great war, the great dying. The era of unlife that it all resulted in, the grey blanket that swallowed his world, Cuna Taniyn, a silvery cocoon that cursed it into stasis. But at the end of the dreams was a rupture, a fissure from which color and life flooded back into the dormant plane. There he would find his purpose, his final mission.

And the Sunflowers Wept
BOOM. The night’s storm hurled lightning across the skies, a great clasp of thunder following with all the wrath of a spurned god. It lit up the whole of the forest ever so briefly, from the crown of the canopies to the underbrush’s underside. It was gone as soon as it came, and the world was darkened by the raging tempest once more. It was far from the first bolt released that night, and she knew it would not be the last. Still, she was alert, on one of the taller branches topped by a roof of thicker fronds. The howling gales made it so the droplets would shoot at her proudly, puffed-up chest, but her eyes remained dry and vigilant.
