No sooner than the moonlight illumines the lake below, it disappears and darkness reigns once more.........

.....as the truth cuts through to her heart like a double edged dagger……..and she knows that peace will always be elusive………but when it is near it must be cherished……and when it has gone for a time, the Dark One must reach deep within her soul for hope…….for what seems to be real is but an illusion………an illusion so dark that fear invades her mind and she is left with no breath…………the dagger of truth is as hard as steel and she fights for her life, fights to have better than before even though it seems so far away……but beneath it all she knows she will conquer the evil that continues to crawl upon the earth that she walks upon each day……..and she will capture it and force it back into the mists once and for all……….in time…….

As the Dark One looks skyward, a ray of moonlight streams down upon her bejeweled by the stars that lurk so close by……

…….and she knows this is where she belongs. Stars so close together look as though they are clouds in the night sky……..constellations move slowly as she breathes out all of the trepidation she has so long held within her soul……..for there is nothing to fear here……..only so much to hope for and it will be……….in time………light shines in the darkness………..in the distance she hears rumbling that is so familiar and there he is on his steel beast…….the mystical music man……….driving toward his home on the lake…….and she smiles………for where else could anyone exist without fear but in this magical place called Sunapee………..
