The Lightbringer
The light in front of her, the darkness behind her. Followed by the creatures of the shadows who are enchanted by the light but never daring to step out into the glow, not ever getting in front of the Lightbringer. They sometimes stomp on each other in their hurry to follow the light while at the same time they try to avoid it entirely. They are afraid of the light, they are afraid that they would end up like the night moths do when they fly into the lamp. They are afraid that if they would step into the circle of the light, they would light up like small flames and would turn into dust.
So they wander with the Lightbringer. Accompanying her silently on her never-ending walk toward the west.
You can catch a glimpse of them at dusk just behind the sun, just before the last rays are disappearing.
Will you wait for the shadows to emerge too? Will you want to have a glimpse at the reflection of the Lightbringer in the eyes of the shadow-creatures?
