A Meeting

Suddenly I heard a soft, distant voice call my name, as I sat up slowly. I looked down the trail, and focused my telepathy, hearing a gentle voice call my name again amid faint psychic static that nullified all other sound except for the voice. I stood up, and walked slowly down the trail, soon coming to a large clearing, before I noticed a colossal monument of weathered grey stone, shaped like a huge rectangular cube with rounded edges, atop a smooth round granite base!

Strange inscriptions and symbols I had never seen before were carved into the stone's four sides in intricate detail. Trying to decipher them proved futile, due to them being in a language that was unlike any known to humanity. I stood before the stone, examining the inscriptions, before I suddenly heard the cry of an eagle from high above. Looking up, I saw a faint black shadow high in the blue sky that circled slowly directly above the stone. As it descended toward the stone, I smiled upon seeing it was a bald eagle! It finally came to land atop it, as it looked down at me.

Our gazes held momentarily, before I smiled, and nodded knowingly at the eagle. It cocked its head to one side in response, then looked up, as I heard footsteps behind me. Turning, I came face-to-face with an astoundingly beautiful white female wolf with beautiful ice-blue eyes! Her fur was white as snow from head to foot, there was a bright red mark like a ring on her forehead, and she wore nothing except for a large silver pendant on a shiny silver chain, but I recognized her as the Mother.

My eyes widened as I recognized the symbol as the 'Heroes' helix, meant to signify her great talent and power!! I kneeled before her in reverence, bowing my head, as she smiled. "I am truly honoured to meet you, Mother of Earth." I said reverently.

She smiled, and reached down to gently lift my chin, as we looked at one another. "And I am to you, Charlie!" she replied, as I smiled. I rose, as we walked together toward the village. "I see that you hide the torment and sadness of the day your life was taken so brutally from you, Charlie," the Mother said sombrely, but then we stopped, as she turned to me, and smiled. "but know this: even in the darkest hour, or the deepest anguish, hope always lies within reach. I have seen that you are indeed a very rare and unique individual, Charlie, and you long for what is good and just in this world to last, but also know that it is your strongest refuge in times of darkness, for God Himself chose to make you into who you are. You must never doubt yourself, Charlie, even when things turn so dark that you may be forced to do so. The disease that has ravaged your body from the moment you were born is not beyond my power to help. I am what is called a Healer, and have the power to draw in and control the life force of the earth, its energies, and its natural forms, drawing in the power to fully heal any wound or injury, no matter how severe!!"

She then gently took my face in her hands; her soft paw-pads warm and satiny smooth against my skin, as we looked into each other's eyes. "I have heard your pleas to be set free, and so I will, not because it is what you want most, but because I know that this is not part of who you really are, and I know God did not plan for this to happen to you at all!" She then turned to look behind me, as I did as well, surprised to see a large rectangular platform atop the monument.

Suddenly I noticed another figure come walking across the clearing toward us. It was a stunningly-handsome male wolf, with fur as black as charcoal, and piercing, yet warm amber eyes, whom I recognized as the Father. He wore a grey Roman toga, a kukri knife in a leather sheath about his waist, and a stunning silver ring, formed by two serpents entwining and meeting atop a crown of golden flowers; one serpent devoured the crown, while the other upheld it, whilst encircling a fiery emerald gemstone, that I instantly recognized as the Ring of Barahir, from 'Lord of the Rings', upon his right middle finger!!
