The name brought cherished memories of the Temple of Aphrodite and all had readily accepted her there. As she slept her mind drifted back to the Greek lands looking out over the Aegean Sea, Sparkling and Blue it gave her a sense of joy. She was looking when she noticed a shimmer coming off the water and rising up the cliffs towards her. Was a feeling of something familiar but could not place. Was a feeling of joy and peace as the Shimmer seemed to begin to pull apart were once was a simple shimmer soon it hand 2 legs 2 arms and a head. It was seemingly taking a Human form. The shapeless arms reached out towards Cyra and when their bodies touched She woke. Not in fear but a small sense of Joy and Loss, before it could begin to set in she heard the sounds of movement in the Hallways it was time to wake to begin her day* #Post#: 3802-------------------------------------------------- Re: During the Night ( Cyra ) By: Cyra Date: May 7, 2018, 1:31 pm --------------------------------------------------------- She lay there a moment longer, trying to recapture anything about dream that would give her a clue to the happiness and loss she felt upon waking. She opened her eyes feeling frustrated and confused by it all. Sitting up she took a deep breath and got up to cross to her alter. She said a prayer to Aphrodite thanking her for all she had given one so unworthy as herself. She thanked her for the dream, the joy and the confusion, as the confusion would spur her on, lead her to new places and a new understanding of herself. Finished, she began her morning preparations, dressing and making her way downstairs to greet the others and the world. As she passed the kitchen she stuck her head inside and smiled at Sarah. "I will see you after work and your studies tonight Sarah songbird. Have a good day, all of you!" Despite her cheerfulness and prayers of thanks...something wriggled at the back of her mind...something she should know but just couldn't quite grasp. #Post#: 3804-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: earthdawn66 Date: May 7, 2018, 5:21 pm --------------------------------------------------------- *she was down stairs hearing how the girls at night and all that occurred. Nothing out of the Ordinary. As she got her items ready and headed out towards the main area there was a feeling to check on the House Mother. When she arrived to see the House Mother she was found laying on the floor* #Post#: 3808-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: Cyra Date: May 7, 2018, 5:42 pm --------------------------------------------------------- She gasped then knelt down and shook her gently, "Housemother....housemother!..Athena! Athena!" She laid her head against her chest and listened for her breathing and heartbeat. She began to pray under her breath... #Post#: 3809-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: earthdawn66 Date: May 7, 2018, 5:46 pm --------------------------------------------------------- *There was no sound or movement that Cyra could distinguish as she began to pray she felt Athena Body warm and her chest rise more then some coughing* What... what happened *her words were shallow and quiet* #Post#: 3812-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: Cyra Date: May 7, 2018, 6:21 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Cyra was crying by then. "I...I don't know...you were ...and I...are you okay?" She was trying to help her up so she could lay her down somewhere comfortable. Sense was coming back to her are she focused on the problem at hand, "How do you feel? Do you remember anything?" She got her to the closest chair to let her rest. When she did, she began to look her over for clues to what had happened. First any physical damage from the fall, then her eyes, fingertips, breathing, anything that may give her insight on what had happened. #Post#: 3819-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: earthdawn66 Date: May 8, 2018, 2:49 am --------------------------------------------------------- *as Cyra looked Athena over there was not a scratch on her nor bruise upon all she could see* I... I feel good... thank you Cyra just a beautiful Woman. . .Thank you *as she sat back in the chair and took a breath when she did her eyes seemed to get a bit larger and she took another breath. Then looked to Cyra as if something had happened and it was good* #Post#: 3826-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: Cyra Date: May 8, 2018, 9:19 am --------------------------------------------------------- She was crouched down before the housemother, still holding one hand to be sure there was no damage when she heard the intake of breath. She looked up to find Athena looking down at her as if all was right in the world. Her face put an uncertain smile on over the worried expression. "Athena? IS everything okay? You look...suddenly happy for a woman who was just prone on the floor." It was becoming an interesting morning. #Post#: 3829-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: earthdawn66 Date: May 8, 2018, 9:29 am --------------------------------------------------------- I... I am.. i dont feel any pains in my knees. . .the fall must have done something *she extended leg leg fully and back again* if not the floor then you with your prayers to Aphrodite either of those answers i will welcome gladly *she even stood up and gave a small spin as her dress flared some* #Post#: 3851-------------------------------------------------- Re: Dureing the Night ( Cyra ) By: Cyra Date: May 8, 2018, 11:19 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Oh no, she had not realized she had spoken so loud as to be heard when praying. She smiled" Yes, well sometimes a fall can be like that...releasing things that before were thought injured. Perhaps it was only tension that held your knee in such pain." She had no desire to try to explain to the church why she was praying to 'false gods' instead of the 'one true God'. She took hold of Athena's waist as she spun, "Athena please, you just had an accident, please sit..." She gently attempted to lower her back into a seated position. "Tell me, do you remember what happened to cause you to fall?" She had see people who were injured suddenly feel better and believe themselves fine, only to worsen quickly a short time later. "I want to be certain you are fine...all of you..not just your knees." ***************************************************** DIR Next Page
