Tears touched Flindra's eyes as she noted the tone of concern in her mother's voice. "I'm safe here with Kewero. I have a terrible enemy who I must face at some point in the future, but that trial is hopefully a long time in coming. Now is the time for learning. I'm learning the things I will need in my conflict with the Evil Ones."
Dakra's eyes clouded with worry. "I see."
"To answer your other question, I must say that I haven't had much time to indulge in emotions. I suppose I'm content. I miss my family and my home too much to be truly happy."
"Give yourself time, Flindra. The happiness you have known with us will not be the only joy in your life. The duties of your life are great, but the rewards will be of like kind. Look forward to your life. Know this, where there is life there is hope. Let optimism grow in your heart." Dakra ended her advice with a smile not on her mouth but in her eyes.
"I love you, Momma."
"I love you, too."
"I'll project myself here again, now that I know its possible." She looked around the room. "Why did you move?"
"I didn't need the big house any more and Leudh's family did. The move made sense."
"I suppose so." She laughed. "I'm glad I filled my thoughts with you and not of the house. I would have ended up in the wrong place."
Dakra smiled happily. "You'll have to be careful when you visit for I don't think the twins could understand. Oh Flindra, it's so good to be able to actually speak with you. This is a great blessing of the Spirit."
"It is. I'll visit often so you don't worry about me. Give my love to Leudh and his family."
"I will."
"Good-bye Momma."
With these words, Flindra allowed herself to be pulled abruptly back to the crystal cave. She closed her eyes and relaxed in the grip of the vertigo and disorientation, which always accompanied the termination of her messages to her family. This time the feeling was more intense and she guessed it was because she had actually projected her essence back to her home.
