Svetlana de Rohan-Levashova. Revelation
Astonished, I looked around and noticed a whimsical phenomenon – the plants
had a second shadow, which for some reason very sharply contrasted with the lit part,
as if the chiaroscuro was painted with bright, flashy colours, vehemently opposed to
each other. In the dark part the air brightly twinkled with miniature stars which flashed
at the least motion. It was extraordinarily beautiful and extremely interesting. The
awoken magic world sounded with thousands of unknown voices, as if informing the
whole Universe about its happy awakening. I felt very distinctly, almost physically,
how incredibly pure the air was there! It exhaled an exquisite fragrance filled with
surprisingly pleasant, elusive, unknown scents, reminiscent of roses, as if a thousand
different sorts were gathered together. The enormous bright "poppies", which I had
already seen, coloured everywhere, wherever one looked, red. It was only now I
realized that Vaya had brought me the same kind of flower! I stretched out my hand
and the flower fluidly flowed into my palm from her fragile palm and suddenly
something strongly "clicked" in my chest. Surprised I saw that millions of striking
unearthly colours flashed and an amazing crystal opened up in my chest and began to
sparkle. It pulsated and changed all the time, as if showing newer and newer facets of
its beauty. I stood stock-still with surprise, fully hypnotized by the show, and could not
take my eyes off the continuously transforming beauty.
– There. – Vaya pronounced with satisfaction in her voice. – Now you can look at
it whenever you want!
– Why is the crystal in my chest, when you put it in my forehead? – At last I
dared to ask the question which had tormented me for several days. The girl was very
surprised and, on thinking a little, answered:
– I don’t know why you ask, you do know the answer. But if you want to hear it
from me, all right: I simply gave it to you through your brain but it should be open
where it belongs, in its real place.
– How do I know all that? – I was surprised.
The violet eyes studied me very attentively for a few seconds, and then an
unexpected answer followed:
– I thought so, you still sleep... But I cannot awaken you; others will do it and that
will not happen yet.
– When will this happen and who will these others be?
– Your friends, but you don’t know them right now.
– How will I know that they are friends and that they are exactly the right persons?
– Puzzled, I asked.
– You will recall. – Vaya smiled.
– Shall I? How can I recall that which does not exist yet? – Dumbfounded, I stared
at her.
– It does, only not here.
She had a very warm smile which made her very attractive. It seemed as if the
May sun peeped out from behind a cloud and illuminated everything around.
– Are you completely alone here, on Earth? – I still could not believe that.
– Certainly not, there are a lot of us, only we are all different. We have lived here
