once more, forever

Commission for Limikkin of her OC.

Here, where people linger in the limbo between slumber and awareness.
This, these quiet morning hours, is the Angel of Awakening’s domain. She shepherds the rising souls into consciousness with gentle nudges, wishes them peace, and moves onto the next group.
It’s an endless cycle, a circling of the planet, but she’s content. She wants for nothing; few things hold more meaning for her than what she has.
She’s needed: invisibly appreciated and silently loved.
It is all she needs.
But she shines brighter, more serenely, like a candle that never falters. She is warmth. She is flame that doesn’t burn. She is everlasting radiance.
She is a dream the world yearns for. Cherishes. Peace blankets Earth where she gazes, and spirits turn towards her like flowers seeking the sun.
She glows ever brighter with their adoration.
Let not this misconception cloud your mind; nothing could be further from the truth.
Nightmares aren’t just for the night. Terrors lurk everywhere and know not the demarcation of time. They are endless, growing, unholy. Infiltrating thoughts and dreams alike, they wreak havoc, dimming the light.
With infinite patience, she casts them aside to guide the world into waking once more.
Somehow, it is enough.

As a haunting melody trails off and the sun paints the sky gold, the world slowly wakes. Well, maybe not the whole world, but a part of it, stretching and shuffling into the day ahead. drawn by a presence from the skies.
