Master-Disciple

There is always hope in the stars. Azur gazes at them with wonder.

      Azur: There are so many, do you know all of them?

      Nickalen: No. That is the task of the BlackSquares. They keep record of the stars and their habitable planets

The WhiteCircle starts to wander with its imagination in the skies. Azur continues to admire the eerie darkness of the night, but with a new perspective! He lies back on his hammock. The boy gazes at the black sky. He notices that his master was right! The alignment of the stars is similar to what he saw back in KUMARI! A slight of spark ignites Azur’s hope! The boy has forgotten all the hard challenges the day has brought and gets lost amongst the stars.

A particular star caught his eye, the shiniest of them all.

      Azur: Master, what is that star's name?

      Nickalen: Which one?

      Azur: THAT! The brightest one!

      Nickalen: That is not a star…

      Azur: No?

      Nickalen: That is Sirius, a SUN!

      Azur: A SUN?!

The young boy’s heart starts to beat faster! Azur does not blink! He is staring at a GOD! His heart beats faster and faster! Azur is overwhelmed by the adrenaline. The mix of faith and fear compels him to do nothing but gaze upon the solar warrior!

The WhiteCircle gains faith, that there, in the wide world, lies a greater power, wiser and more benevolent with the strength to make a difference! The difference some worlds need! To change all that is bad into LIGHT and HOPE! And the boy also gains fear, that his merely mortal existence could not be worthy to be in presence of such might!

Azur does not know what to do. So, he stares. The boy admires the most powerful spirit known in the ancient texts! SIRIUS – this is a name he will never forget.

      Azur: I have heard stories about solar warriors! I heard they train on a planet without darkness! On WALUR! Is that true, Master?

There is no response from the GreenCircle!

      Azur: Master, how can I show my respects? Master?!
