But the Sun was not what called her today.
Nevertheless it was her name that got called when the one with the power to grow flowers from the eutrophic earth – the one who was able to spread the seeds from the flowers of many species on to undiscovered places. Of course she knew that the Sun she served was the light of life the earth was in need for for existing. But it was simply so easily overlooked through the brilliant heat of angry flames and wildfires. Perhaps it was barely that knowledge that kept her under the roof of a canopy of half-shadows and sunlight. Logically, she knew. And she didn’t care. But then again logically, she had not thought that the God would call her name this sunset. For her path was not framed by flowers and brooks, but by the fire and heat she secretly adored.
So she swallowed, retained her respectful composure and from her isolated forestry haven, draped in shadow and light, she walked towards the earthly divinity that was the God of the Earth. His chuckling sound was like a chore of twittering little birds in spring. Summoned she was, felt, but that disappeared when the God spoke out a wish she had been having in the depths of her mind. And with thankful eyes she smiled at him and then whispered: “Thank you” as she dipped her head into a small bow. To him – to the flowers, the greenery, the smell of rain and the glimmering sea when she sailed them, both wild and still. She would be to find others who would affect her senses – and after that her vision would be turn into mist for three days.
As she was simply a servant of the Gods, she neither looked forward to what awaited her, nor did she felt reluctance. For what she had been given was a gift from the heavens, a stronger stance to serve the worthy and the needy. For she knew, to keep the balance in the world, for the peace of the world, the four Gods were all components of equal importance. And so she looked at the Sun’s Brother. “I shall return when I have been enlightened.” A last time she dipped her head, and then turned her frame around to head back into the forest where only the half-light embraced her tiger-striped figure once again.
Notes: Thank youuu! <3
