Prologue
“O Midnight Sun, O Mother of all Stars I whisper to you in my mind I unite with you in my heart. Marvellous is your shining Great is your brightness Eternal are your forces
O Midnight Sun, O Mother of all Stars I join you in stillness I join you in peace My mind is open My heart is clear All my senses are pointed to you.
O Midnight Sun, O Mother of all Stars Grant me stillness Grant me peace Let me enter your silent kingdom And be placed truthfully inside you.
So that I can see what you see So that I can feel what you feel So that I can know what you know So that I can become…”
"Click" Suddenly the rite was interrupted by a noise coming out of the forest’s darkness. Suddenly the reality returned, forcing the being to revert back into its humanoid corpse. “Just one click but it was able to cross dimensions.” thought the figure that was clothed in its traditional dark purple garment. “O how much do I dislike those situations” thought it further, “when I get disturbed exactly in this moment, just one second before…”
The figure couldn’t even finish this thought as an anew clicking got its attention. Someone was there; the being felt the presence very close to it. A life energy that was moving amid the trees, covered through the dark, forced the being to point all its senses to it. Again, there was a noise and then... it was silence. Still with sharpened senses, with tensed muscles and without a breath, the being was awaiting an extraordinary occasion but nothing happened; ...it was silence. And all that could be heard was again only the murmuring of the rivulet. All that could be seen was again only the light sea of the human cities below and the light chain of the heavenly stars above.
The situation that seemed to get out of control, occurred on the apex of a high mountain in the East of the visible world; high above the human kingdom. It was already a while past midnight and the being was curious what it was that moved through the protection of the late night. But what the being didn’t know while it was philosophizing: it wasn’t alone when it was coming up here, ever. High above on the firmament, hidden behind the heaven's clouds, an angel was observing the obscure scenario very attentive and wondering about the sense of the unknown ceremony that took place here, at the top of the holy mountains, between heaven and earth, since countless decades. Constrained by sheer curiosity, striving for an answer, the angel decided to outspread its wings and to climb down to the earth.
