❝ Glance upon me an admire my beauty. I shall sparkle & shimmer with little to no light. Slowly, taking in your faces of admiration an disgust.
Projecting from my body....
I'll show you life's beautiful moments & crushing hardships. Honestly, even if im broken, an I'm thrown away - each piece of me will sparkle a mirage of a rainbow. Thus, each shard of me will uniquely hold the quality of my body.
Life has made me hard & strong, but not unempathetic. Applying the world's weight upon me has made me Majestically beautiful. I am soft enough to share with the right amount of force, and strong enough to show everyone if all of my shards where returned to my body....
I would be impenetrable.
Who am I...❞

The sand bar
As the sand bar lay out in front of me the sun began to set. I was so preoccupied with the discovery of a group of hermit crabs fighting over a new empty shell that I almost didn’t notice the reflection of the sunset across the water until the colors reflected off the water and into my view. Looking across the sand bar the sea floor looking like wrinkled dessert land, every color imaginable reflected off the thin layer of water that lay upon the wrinkled sand bar beneath. The beauty of the moment was astounding and the realization that this simple evening was part of a spiritual understanding that I already had. I began to run across the thin water splashing the reflected colors with each stomp of my feet. Laughter rose from my chest like an broken damn filling the ocean air with a cacophony of water plop sounds from my feet and unbridled laughter. As the sun began to set in the distance and the bright red ball in the sky became lower and lower on the sky, watching it disappear was just as amazing as the color works it had provided just minutes before. As I walked home that night I had a new appreciation for the planet and the sea. New understanding of joy and a new spiritual connection that I had not felt before. As I lay down to sleep I smiled and rubbed my little feet together feeling the beach sand in my bed. Tomorrow had new adventures waiting and after all that was a very big day for a little girl.

Fangs of Light
This story is a continuation of the Tales of Ezok that began in "The Precipice." Reading this story and its companion "Whispers and Whisps" is not required to enjoy this story, but they will each add layers to the character we see here and I would be remiss to not mention them at the very least.
