The pearls

      Amaya: You are strong… and brave… you can turn pain in something extraordinary!

The mother removes the necklace, along with the pearl tied to it, from her neck. Amaya puts the necklace over Dimia’s head. She gifts the pearl to her younger daughter!

      Dimia: Is this for me?

      Amaya: Yes, my little oyster!

Dimia gazes and inspects the pearl! With her fingers, she turns the pearl left, then right! She rotates it back and forth! Dimia admires it with great curiosity! The pearl is so clean. So white! Dimia tries to squeeze it! She cannot do it!

Dimia opens her mouth. With one open eye, Dimia gazes at her mother. She wants to bite the pearl to check its durability, but intuitively asks her mother for approval.

      Amaya: Don’t try it!

Dimia releases the pearl. The pearl falls and dangles close to her chest.

      Amaya: Have your learned something from your sister, Dimia?

      Dimia: Yeah, she taught me medication!

      Palacia: MEDITATION, dumbbell!

      Dimia: Ah, yeah! Meditation!

The mother does not know what to believe. Amaya moves her gaze at the older, more responsible daughter, for the clear answer! Palacia sees the doubt in her mother’s eyes. She opens her eyes wide and tries to convince her!

      Palacia: I swear!

Palacia quickly looks at her sister!

      Palacia: Tell her!

      Dimia: There was something about taking with myself…

      Palacia: I said… meditation is a way to find answers!

The ambiguous response somehow relates with the teaching. The mother is relieved.

      Amaya: Dimia… you will learn in White Training… that the answer lies in the question! Meditation teaches you to put the right question!

      Dimia: Yes, mom…

Their walk came to an end. The mother and her daughters have arrived at the sanctuary! Outside the immense stone construction, there are the carriers! There can be seen some WhiteCircles start to board the stone-pods! Some carriers have already flown!
