Tine Ancient City Was Alive.
I crested the hill and looked down at the ruins in the moonlight.

The city was new.

I blinked. Nothing changed, although everything already had.

The city was alive.

People, beautiful creatures in long, colored robes, walked among pillared walkways and sat upon marble
chairs. Their long hair, gold and black and red, hung like shawls over their shoulders. They moved as if in
a dream, or perhaps it was because I was in a dreamlike state. For I could not say how I felt at that
moment. I should have been in shock. But I didn't register what I saw as real because I no longer felt
human. I moved forward, toward them, wanting to be a part of them. Yet it was as if my feet no longer
touched the ground. They floated and I drifted. I could vanish into space in an instant. It was good. I was
in the right place at the right time. I was coming home to a place beyond space and time. A portion of my
mind left me then, and a larger part of my soul entered the void.

I stepped into the city.

I sat down on a smooth white seat.

Someone noticed me. Then another. They smiled joyfully, hopefully.

I closed my eyes and waited for them to come to me. To serve me.
