Sunlight bursts over the horizon as the Dark One stands strong, feeling the outline of the embedded stones beneath her feet....

…..behind her is the gazebo and before her eyes is the magical harbor……..she feels no weight upon her shoulders any longer………light builds within her heart……she is free, free of the pain that has haunted her for so long……no demons from the past shall come to her in this moment of bliss or ever again……..knowing who she is and what she desires most…..her future…….one filled with peace…….finally, she knows peace within her heart…..the demons that have existed are gone…….she vows to not ever allow them into her heart again……the warmth of the sun glows upon her face and shines upon her armor……..it is no longer hard as steel, but soft, beautiful leather studded with shining stars…....transformed with the magic of love………
