The Eye Of Eywa [𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫]

006

As I open my eyes from connecting with the tree. I see myself in a bright and open place. The floor was a shiny stone, my reflection looking back at me. My steps echo through the vast space.

This place was different. I hadn't ever seen a place like this when I connected with the tree back home.

"Hello," I called out in the open space. I was about to call again before a great wind came from behind me, causing me to slightly stumble forward. It felt warm. It was her.

"My daughter... I sense you are troubled" a voice. Female. It boomed through the large room with great power and I heard her but could not see her.

"W-who are you?" I asked. I knew deep down but I wanted confirmation.

I heard the woman let out a huff of air in the impression of short laughter before responding back to me.
"I'm sure you already know. You see and feel me far too often for us to be considered strangers" Her voice boomed around me in response.

"Eywa..." I said and she hummed back to me in response. I couldn't believe it. I was talking to her.

"Oh, great mother...please tell me why you show me these visions. Why must you riddle my body with these pains? Please tell me."

"You are strong my daughter. You were born with the ability to see past the veil. I blessed you with many gifts. The ability to see, is one of them. I know of your hurt, daughter, but you will come to understand. Only you can be the one to change things. Stop chaos before it ensues." She speaks.

I didn't fully understand. I didn't want to be a part of something this big. It's too much pressure. I can't be the one to stop everything, it's too much for me alone.

"But great mother...how will I have made any difference to my families story, to the great design of time. I'm no one."

"...You are special, daughter. I knew you before you came to be, and I will continue to know you after taking your last breath. I set this path for you because I see through to your soul. One that is pure and filled with love for everyone, and for me. You will see your purpose soon, daughter." Eywa's voice began to fade.

"Wait, don't go! I have so many questions!"

"They can wait, little one. We will see each other again."

"No, don't go! Wait...Why am I different?! Answer me... please." I plead before the great wind of Eywa pushed me backward.

I felt the wind flow through me this time, not around. It burned. It no longer felt like the warm hugs I felt before, more like fire, a great roaring fire. I felt something in me changing as the burn radiated throughout my entire body. It hurts.

it hurts, someone please help me...

I continued to look over towards Syl's brother and sisters as they floated near the tree, queues connected to it. They were all beginning to disconnect from it one by one. As I looked back towards Sylwanin to see if she was out.
I see her body convulsing strongly, the white speckles on her face and body flashing brightly along with the limbs of the spirit tree and many plants around us.
