The Flood

It is everywhere, now. I cannot sleep because what was once in my dreams is all around me. I felt it as a gentle trickle far away yesterday... I had to search for hours before I found it... but, now the Fire is all around me. I cannot breath except it fills my lungs, cannot see for it clouds my vision, the crackling fills my ears and the smell of ash clogs my nostrils. And they restrain me!

I no longer know what to do. It seems so obvious that I should delve into the sky, the earth... I should gather lightning and fire in my fist. It seems so natural... this is what I was born to do. They say this is Kha... the power that shaped the world! Surely it could take back my homeland - I would no longer be a vagabond and my mother and sisters could live in peace away from the prejudice of the Sayaki.

The Phoenix will Rise from the Ashes!
