Even darkness has a heart

There was a rumbling sound from the Black Abyss, as if a great fire were singing. The music fell silent, not on command, but the musicians, dazed, stopped playing. The crowd watched the white, graceful silhouette walk away into the misty darkness. Mayor Dosher stood with a frozen smile that seemed to be painted on a dramatically pale face.
Olaf was walking over the abyss, and it was billowing black mist beneath him. It was nothing, it was not the first chasm he had passed.
The darkness shimmered suddenly with a golden uneven net, multicolored lights ran across it, the black fog became sharply higher. Olaf was looking ahead, not down, so only by the edge of his eye did he notice the glow below. He reached the end and stepped onto the cliff.
The crowd exhaled as one man and exploded with cheering shouts and applause.
Klaus sighed and picked himself up. Now the most important thing was beginning – whether Abyss would let the young fool go or send some evil instead.
