Reiterating my request from a few days ago for a ride back to Earth. I tried your idea Song, but my parents were... insistant that I be home for the holiday.
[video start- In the dim glow castby a candlestick, DreamWriter is sitting with Sheridan on her shoulder, placing a large white pillar candle on a plate on the table in front of her. She looks over at the screen.]
It's the darkest part of the year. From darkness comes dawn. And well... the wheel turns.
[she lights the pillar candle, singing softly]
Light is returning Even though this is the darkest hour. No one can hold back the dawn. Let's keep it burning. Let's keep the light of hope alive. Make safe our journey through the storm. The worlds are turning. Circling their paths around the sun. The World Spirits are calling their children home.
[she smiles looking at the flame]
Let's remember this season to keep our lights and hopes deep inside alive. The fire flickers, and while knowing darkness is important, we are not alone.
Happy Solstice, my friends.
