Peace and quiet, calmness of the night sky, serene views creep upon me.
Beautiful, always beautiful.

Sunday mornings well before dawn, to meet him at the temple of the gods.
My father died when I was a small child, I remember small things about him, the colour of his eyes golden brown, the smell of him that conjured the night sky.
This was our thing once a month, it was the only way to communicate other than dreams. Since I was 7 years old. Our secret meeting at the temple before dawn, this would be my last one before school started. I was leaving soon and it would be 3months before I returned home.
Out on the steps of the temple I lit the candles and kneeled holding a white feather between my hands that were pressed to together to pray.
"My Father in heaven, give me this day,
Your child who is noble, just and pure. The gift of heavenly spirit, eternal life and your blessing. Lead me into your embrace, hold me in your presence, with warmth and love.
Farther of mine, I give you my heart and all that is pure in world, amen"
Almost instantly,
"What beautiful words, daughter of my heart. Your pure heart shines brighter than star in sky . I have missed your face" he says cupping his hands around mine.
" I too, have missed yours father, thank you for your blessing this beautiful morning. I'm sorry I'm earlier than usual, but I wanted some extra time with you before I leave" smiling at him my own light shining in full splendour.
"Ahhh, I was hoping you would come sooner, we have many things to discuss. But first how is my wife ? She has been hard to reach of late"
With worry in eye, we waits for me to answer.
" she is well, but trouble has been brewing in the kingdom's, and with me leaving for school, it's taken it's toll on her. Auntie Bow has promised to keep an eye her whilst I'm gone. I would also ask this favour of you too. But I know you already do what you can"
Sadness filing my voice, I look out the view of city below.
"It's no favour you ask, it's my duty to watch over my family. My only virtue, my only sin, my one earthly life......... I'm been called away. Time is short sweet one, but in this time I must  bestow a gift to you. The gift of divinity, your powers are already strong and worthy of the sky kingdom. But you will now carry the full burden of heaven within your vain's. The light you possess was but a fraction, of what now lays beneath your skin. You will need her before the end. For you are pure of heart, mind, body and soul. You are but one half of the pure legacy, you will cleanse this world and rebirth a new. You will be saviour of earth, keeper of hell and guardians of heaven. You must travel today, the well of fate for it will set you on your path, dark are the days  ahead and he will test your worth. Do not fail for you both are the last hopes of salvation"
He pressed one hand over my forehead fingers spread out in to borders of my hair and another hand over my heart. My powers lighting up under his touch, then a spark, a sizzling from his fingers burning my body. Then his eyes locked with mine his golden brown eyes now leaping flames, that set a blaze in my own. Then with an invisible force my body lifted towards the sky, pure power and light seeping from every pore. Bright white light shot into the sky lightning it up, just as the sun rose up and the moon was still visible.
Landing in front of my farther on the temple steps, my power and its light recoiled back to my body.
Proud look on his face, his entity flickering "I've always known who and what you are. I will always love you my angel. In time of need and despair, trust in your divinity, trust in your pure soul and trust in me. For I will always be watching over you. Your path awaits at the well of fate visit before you leave. Keep your power hidden till the time is right. Good bye daughter of mine, blessed by the Holy Spirit."
And with that he vanished "I love you always and forever........don't be a stranger, remember your promise about dream walking tho" talking into fresh morning sun, I heard a faint laugh trickle down the sun rays. Turning away from the temple, looking to future, something within me felt different, a buzzing within me, my power humming, climbing it's way to escape the vessel.
I felt power, spiritual power and something more. It whispered to me.............
