20. Catharsis

I wake up to the sound of ocean winds
the wide open water surrounds me
the island lies distant on the horizon
and the sun hangs low just above it

I hear men calling out from behind me
the ship approaches, and the crew is gathered at starboard
they wave to me
the captain stands over them, directing the men to throw me a line
I reach for it, and they pull me aboard
the men greet me with handshakes and smiling faces
all but the captain, who looks concerned
or could that look be disappointment
he takes my hand and turns it over
and we both examine the empty spot where my mark of light used to be
the captain frowns and shakes his head
the light is gone from me, like it was never there
frantically, I open my satchel, searching for proof that this wasn't just a dream
every one of the papers is blank

I look up at the captain
he reaches his hand out, and his mark of light illuminates the papers
briefly revealing the messages that I left on them in the tower
I've lost the power to see them on my own, just like with the beings of light
but the magic is still hidden in these pages
I'm sure the elders will want them back
the captain nods, and walks over to the side of the ship
he points his fist, and casts an aura of light toward the water
within moments, dozens of papers float up to the surface
the crew trawls them in and hands them to me
as the captain walks away

all the papers that were lost in the storm, recovered just like that
but something about it seems off
I stow the papers in my satchel
until the last one catches my eye
it isn't blank
it bears a familiar sight
the dark spirits
the monsters I fought
I gaze at the drawing, pondering it
then my gaze wanders back over to the captain, back turned and glancing to the side
I still can't decipher that look in his eyes
anger, perhaps
or anticipation

exhausted from my journey, I retire to the cabin to rest
I close my eyes, lying in stillness
and soon, I am overcome with a feeling
like I'm flying
I open my eyes, and all around me are clouds, and towers
and a snowfall that drifts skyward
I look down at my hands
only they aren't hands
but claws
I am back in the body of a dragon
my broad wings carrying me effortlessly through the air
though my claw is still without the mark, I can feel the light calling out to me
I am drawn toward the tower
I fly through the open window
and ascend the staircase spiralling up the dark chambers
even without the light, my eyes can see every detail with vivid clarity
and just up ahead, there it is
the wooden coffin with my handprint on it
I can feel it breathing
I step toward it
and I place my claw on its surface
I am still not afraid
the coffin opens
a brilliant light shines from within
my light
it is alive with my essence
the spirit of the guardian
the one who came before me
and me, the new dweller of light
the aura dances around the room
I close my eyes and smile
knowing that as long as this light lives in me
I will never stand alone

I open my eyes, back aboard the ship
from outside, I can hear shouting and a distant crackle
I run to the deck to see the sight
on the horizon, barely visible
the tower breaks away from the island and slowly rises into the sky

I stand with the crew as we watch in awe
nearby, the captain looms, with that impossible expression
I can't bring myself to meet his gaze
he knows I'm not a threat, and that he has nothing to gain from me
so for now I am safe
I keep my eyes fixed on the sunset
and think about the mission that the guardian gave me
to protect the light
from those who would seek to take it for themselves
that is why my light stayed behind
out of reach from the corrupt of this world
I still have my connection to that light
to the spirit of the dragon
and I promise
to watch over this world in every waking moment

and to seek the truth every night
in my dreams
