Just like with the sky’s other transitions, the dark purple receded “north” in a matter of seconds, giving no warning to the poor girl who now held within her hands the only source of light she knew of. “Well, it’s n-not like it’s THAT dark…” Kaltyr reassured herself, trying to calm the tremoring in her limbs with rationality. “Looks like …
Chapter Six: Survival Needs Met
Her expression appearing almost deranged with excitement, Kaltyr stood up and took a fresh look at the world with her new and improved eyes. “Well,” Kaltyr thought to herself, “it’s not my eyes, but a new sense entirely.” All around Kaltyr flowed the ever-present magical essence which the guidebook spoke of.
