On your way home the twilight fades into nothingness. Shadows arise, the path plunges in darkness. But fear not; you have a pale companion looking over your shoulder and smiling at you. He lights your way and outshines the stars in the sky. Reflected sunlight, but much gentler, soothing even. Not a cloud can hide him forever, not a veil of mist can reach him. Yet he will be there as a silent witness, a monument of calmness, of hope. For the night is less uninviting when he is there to gaze upon you and remind you: home is close.
