    Familiarity.

    It can be comforting and soothing.

    Or it can be menacing and terrifying.

    At the moment, Robin has no way to know which way to feel.

    He sits in the gloom pondering his current situation and feeling very much like a fool.
    It all seemed so palpable. Real danger. Actual wounds with places now occupied by actual scars.
    Memories held and skills learned while trapped in The Stone House. He’s had dreams before. Of course he has.
    And although it’s not always easy to distinguish experience from fantasy, he felt like he had a pretty good handle on the difference.
    Now…not so much.

    The boundaries of this place cannot be seen as yet.
    But the sounds of his own breath belie the approximate size of the space.
    Not much light here, but what there is, is dim and bluish.
    At the edges of his perception there are frames defining the boundaries fading into view.
    As the smoke loiters, the paintings are more visible than before.
    Walls obscured by heavy curtains are dominated by enormous old frames enclosing a number of vivid paintings.

    They are gathered here as if to a wake - watching him. Waiting for Robin to view them.
    The overriding desire of all paintings is to be experienced. To be appreciated. To be seen.
    Each possesses the essence of the one who created it.
    Imbued with the passion, the anger, the lust, the drive that compelled the hand which brushed them into life.
    They have hung here for an eternity. Waiting. Waiting to fulfill their purpose.

    They have dark gifts to give. And they can sense that he is ready.

lyrics

The Sum Of What’s Missing

I keep in my heart
Some of what’s missing inside me
Practice the art
Silently solving the pain

She added the dawn
And subtracted the dark
Dividing me from
That which I did not need
And washing the wounds
While I bleed
I’m still living behind
No comfort to find
What’s missed inside

Arrived at the sum
That’s missed inside
I carry the one
Who’s missed inside

In solitude
Something I said to myself
Wondering why
Hard as I try
No equation can find the remainder
Inside

She comforts me
Even though eyes cannot see her
Something I save
To convince me I’m brave
No ascension can help me to save her
I’ll carry the one

I stared at the shade
Questioning the answers
The light she made
Gives me nowhere to hide
Equations divide
What’s missed inside
Cross the grandest divide
I’ll carry the one
Who’s missed inside

I carry the one
Who’s missed inside
Arrived at the sum
That’s missed inside
I carry the one
Who’s missed inside
