The End of the Seventh Year of Night
In the end of the seventh year of that Night, the Earth shuddered underfoot. There was a pause – a breath was taken and held.
All the Waking felt it, those with Power and those without. They all wondered what it might portend. And when the burning blinding Brightness came, they shut their eyes and turned their faces away.
They didn’t know what it could mean. They had forgotten Day. They had forgotten Sun. Only at the end of the first hour of the Dawn did the memories flood back to them.
