A Gentle Glow

A soft hush fills the space. I feel warmth stir deep inside my chest. Slowly, I open my eyes to a dim, purple glow radiating from tiny lamps overhead. Standing beside me is an armored figure, still and imposing in the colored shadows. With quiet care, I move my paw, testing the solid ledge beneath me. It holds firm. I reach out very gently, letting my soft fur brush against the sleek edge of the dark cape beside me. Everything is so peaceful here in the twilight. I settle softly onto the ledge, watching the steady violet lights above.
