âWho are you?â Seren longed to ask, but her voice never emerged through the tightness of her throat.
The Goddess nevertheless replied. âI am who I am, Seren Pendragon,â she said, with a timbre that echoed throughout eternity. âYou are blood of my blood, heart of my heart, soul of my soul.â
A maternal face materialized from a cloud of whiteâeyes first, shaded the palest amber to mirror the flame of the sword in her hand. Kind and gentle eyesâ¦
Next, she saw a perfect patrician nose. High, beautiful cheeks, like those of a Saracenâs. Lush, full lips, like those of a Nubian Princess. Wings of a Valkyrie. Breasts, high, round and firm. Thighs, long and stout. Hair, flowing like a thousand rivers to the sea⦠She was every woman at once, and all these things rippled from the aether, forms in a cloud, inconstant, and ephemeral, almost as though if Seren dared to expel a breath, it would all dissipate and never reappear. Therefore, she held her breath.
âCome,â the woman demanded, and Seren knew in her heart that she spoke to the Goddess. Quickly, sensing herself crossing time and space, she knelt at the feet of this exquisite creature, who seemed to embody every woman she had ever met⦠a heavenly body made of wind and fire and aquavit, all at once, though it hardly seemed possible.
The Goddess materialized fully then, her face furious and terrifying, a maelstrom of every sacred element, glowing and swirling like the eye of a storm.
âWhere am I?â
Despite her terrifying visage, there was a benevolent note in the womanâs voice, and her words rang like melody. âSome call it Heaven. Some call it Tween. Others call it the Other Realm. Only someday youâll know it for what it is⦠the dominion of the Sylph.â
âSylph?â
Your true kind.
âCaw, caw!â said the black bird from the dark recesses of Serenâs mind, but it was not here in this place. It was perched on some windowsill in another world, one she no longer inhabitedâ¦
We are bound by destiny, to destiny bound,
I to you, and you to meâ¦
Choose me, or choose to be free.
As you will it, so mote it be.
