over us all

i was starving to death.
the sorrow was the only thing able to overcome the pain i was feeling, a soft killing pain embracing me and leading me to the final oblivion.

i was lying in the depth of a great forest, only the sound of birds all around me, no sign of human (or human-like) life near me. it was spring, the air was softly warm and i could see a lot of wonderful flowers blooming full of earthly power. the earth itself was joyful and pounding full of the force to grant itself its wishes hidden during autumn and winter.

i just wanted to be freed from the pain, no matter where i was. i could not be satisfied with that visions, as i was slowly dying.
it was a silent prayer: Gods, you who stand proud in the Heavens, help me to escape this torture.

and then, suddenly it was silence.

the wind began to blow with dark, majestic fury; the air soon became cold, dazing, sharp, it cut me as thousands of millions of infinitesimal blades, smart knives cuttind deep every part of me.
every beast ran away, away from this wintry wind, whirlwind of tameless fury.

and then, blessing of Immortals, the snow began to fall.
even in the deepest part of the forest, even in the most covered, sheltered place... the snow was falling constantly, its mighty soft power as a blessing over us all.
when everything was finally covered in white, when even my last spark of consciousness was near to fall, He came over us all.
He came.

eternal life.
