Yes, I am back...its been exactly two months since my last post and I must first apologize, as I've promised

It's been a wonderful spring-turned-summer so far. Here in the Northland spring was slow to start, but it finally arrived and summer's knocking at the door. When I can pull myself away from Crystal and her latest journey, I've tended my gardens which survived one of the coldest winters I can imagine, jumped on my bike and attempted to find my 'biking' legs, wandered around the gardens at the MN Landscape Arboretum (one of my favorite spots of all time) and other household sundries I need to pay attention to. Yes, I'm a writer, but this is such a lovely time of year, I have to pay attention to it!
For those of you who have read the first three books, I know you're anticipating Book IV and I'm putting all of my efforts into making sure it is perfect and complete and ready for publication as promised. So, here's what I've decided to do. I'm going to share with you a story that I've included in the beginning of my new book, due for release fall 2014..."Blue Crystal Mountain."
Now, I don't want to tell you where Crystal is, because that would spoil a wonderful surprise, but I will say this: the being sharing the story with Crystal that you are about to read is a goddess, well-known throughout Asia, known by various names. She shares this story with Crystal because, well, I cannot tell you that either, but it's really not important at this point. Important for Crystal, yes, but for you right now, let's just say, the story can stand on its own. So, I now present to you, the Tale of the Two Sisters, as told to Crystal by a goddess whose beauty and compassion is beyond compare.
The woman eyed
Crystal curiously. “Has no one told you the tale of the two sisters?”
Crystal shook
her head.
“Then before we
continue, I must tell you and then you will understand the importance of your
sister. The story is this: Long ago when
new worlds were being created, there were two sisters of royal birth, each known
for their extraordinary gifts. The older sister was a great warrior whose skill
in battle was unmatched. Her spirit was like the moon, dark and elusive, filled
with powerful, mystical qualities, and her intuition, heat and passion in battle
were legendary. When enraged, her anger was explosive and everywhere she went,
a large snake with blue shiny scales would follow, a warrior in its own right.
“The younger
was her opposite. Her spirit was like the sun, filled with powerful qualities
of light. She was full of life with a strong clarity of mind, a warm open heart
and possessed great wisdom. After heavenly battles were fought, many would seek
her out to sit by her side—just being near her light would heal their bodies
and their minds. And she was never seen without a glorious white bird at her
side. The sisters were inseperable, spending hours in each others company,
desiring no other.
“One day the younger
sister was called away and told by her father, the king, that she must leave. A
new planet was being birthed, a world where the angels could pretend to be
human, and the galactic council needed her help in overseeing its construction.
To make it complete, they needed her warmth, wisdom and light. The news
distressed her when she learned her sister would not be joining her, but she
had to obey the king. She and the white bird left that day. The sister left
behind went into deep despair, speaking to no one, taking her grief out on
unsuspecting foes in battle, and more elusive than ever. She soon discovered
why her sister had left and vowed to someday leave her kingdom to search for
this new blue planet and the only being she ever loved.
“Finally the
day came when she wasn’t needed in battle and she left, bringing the blue snake
with her, spending untold years searching for her sister and the planet in the
vast universe. When she came upon a blue star she was immediately drawn to it.
Tired after eons of searching for her sister, she settled on the star, establishing
a strong connection with the light beings upon it and became their leader, remaining
there until the day she decided to once again begin searching for her sister.
However, this time she didn’t travel alone, she brought with her twelve beings
from the blue star, hoping their special gifts could help.
“And so they
set off, soon discovering a small cluster of stars and a council of six sisters.
Without telling them why, the warrior sister asked them if they knew of this blue
planet and they told her of a place that was newly born and how their sister, a
warm compassionate creature with a sunny nature and open heart had traveled
there to plant the seeds of compassion into the race of beings who were given
the planet as a place to live. But she’d become trapped by an evil reptile
who’d hoped to claim the planet as its own and who feared her light.
“The warrior
sister, trying not to fly into a rage, calmly asked if this sister, like her,
had traveled to them from the stars and when they nodded, she told them the
truth of who she was, asking them to help her find this planet, promising them
anything if they did. They told her they could help upon one condition: if she
could release her sister, she must return to them for it was necessary for
their number to remain seven. Without hesitation she agreed and the sisters
sent her off.
“Finding the
blue planet was easy compared to finding her sister so she sent the twelve beings
in different directions. She had just begun to despair of ever finding her
sister when she saw a white misty bird hovering over a mountain’s top exuding a
light brighter than anything she’d yet seen on the planet. Overjoyed at finding
her sister, yet suspicious of the reptile that had trapped her, she told the
blue serpent to stay behind, instructing it to find the other twelve and return
to the blue star if anything happened to her.
“She fled to
the mountain, encountering a large bronze serpent that reared up, attempting to
strike her down but she fought bravely until the wicked one bested her,
dragging her to its lair, entrapping her like it had her sister. When she found
her sister sitting like a regal queen of light in a golden cage deep beneath the
mountain her heart broke. Her sister had always been filled with joy, her smile
lighting up the stars, her warm spirit boundless and free. Now she was a
captive, sad and confused with no sign of recognition in her blue eyes when
they laid upon her. The warrior sister
knew her sister could not survive like this and called for the bronze serpent,
making him a promise.
“’If you
release my sister,’ she said, ‘I will remain
and share my warrior qualities with you and any that you choose. But if you do
not, I will escape and use every means to destroy you.’”
“‘Very well,’
it hissed having witnessed her skills and realizing her request could make him
stronger. ‘But once released, the light can never return. If it does I will
destroy every creature upon this planet. And you must remain here forever,
returning even after you die, using your skills to do whatever I wish.’”
“Satisfied that
her sister would be safe, she agreed, and the bronze serpent released the
light, sending it into the heavens along with the white bird where the light
sister remained, becoming the seventh sister once again, vowing to return,
knowing her sister had sacrificed everything for her. And the blue planet,
without the warmth and compassion of the light, suffered and moved into
centuries of battles and death. The twelve beings from the blue star, along
with the blue serpent, decided to stay and hid deep within the earth, each
caring for the planet in their own way, attempting to maintain its energies
until the light could return.
“Lifetime after
lifetime kings and queens of great wealth sought out protection from the bronze
serpent who used the warrior and her skills to betray and corrupt Mankind. But the
warrior sister separated herself from him and began protecting those who loved
the planet, sharing the sacred information she’d brought from the blue star,
knowledge they’d once had but forgotten, showing them loyalty and compassion, becoming
more legendary every time her spirit returned.
“All the while,
the seventh sister watched, sending the white bird to the planet every thousand
years to gather information, becoming a witness to every life and event,
recording with detail and great care everything that happened, witnessing the
destruction of one age and the rebirth of another, placing the information into
a blue stone. She even witnessed the contract made between her sister and the twelve
caretakers of Earth, ensuring Mankind could regain their inheritance, their
divine knowledge, if they did not destroy it by the year 2000.
“Not until the
great event of 1987 occurred when 144,000 lightworkers joined together in peace,
raising the vibration of Earth and setting it on a new course, was there hope
that the light return. Because of this shift, the bronze serpent no longer had
power over the earth and its people and for the first time since the planet was
born, the sisters from the stars would spend their first lifetime together—one
fulfilling the contract, unveiling the sacred information she’d once shared
with those who loved the planet, and the other called on to witness the first
days of the Fifth Age, bringing her light and the white bird with her to herald
the coming of a new world where compassion and love will once again prevail on
earth.”
Crystal stroked
Wyndon’s head, letting the story sink in. Even though the last few months were
surreal and she’d done and seen things only the wildest imagination could dream
up, the story of the sisters took the prize.
Crystal closed
her eyes, seeing her sister’s sweet, beautiful face, missing her and loving her
now more than ever. No one, other than her grandfather, had loved her more than
Claire, even in their youth when she’d tormented her, stolen her things, lied
to her face, shut her out after their grandfather death, even growling when
she’d stopped her from planting her fist in the moronic Luke Cob’s face. Her
sister had stepped in stopping her from doing stupid things time and again, but
she’d never thanked her, only ignored her more, but the love in Claire’s eyes
had never dimmed. All because she’d been so jealous of Claire’s goodness.
Claire was good and she’d always felt rotten, rotten to the core. Claire was like the sun, always bright and
happy, she like the moon, dark and elusive. Her sister was her hero and she had
to save her.I hope you enjoyed this story! Some of you might have a bit of deja vu...thinking I might have touched on this story once already in another book. But I will not say where, when, or how, I will let your own imaginations and intellect take you on that journey.
And so with a fond farewell, I bid you adieu. Crystal is calling me back to the page and I must heed her call for she is at another impasse and needs my help!
Have a lovely day
Namaste
