Lustella 's Descent

The night shimmered with golden orbs that slowly pulsated to a silent beat, thin tendrils flowing slightly behind their light. Amethyst and sapphire hues painted the sky above, the colors reflected by the dual moons parallel from one another, both casting their own dim glow. A gentle breeze caressed the soft, bright emerald grass, sharing the scent of the dew-covered blades with the world. Running water trickled against the rocks in a nearby stream, bringing balance to the peaceful night. Crystallized lithium roses sprouted about the earth, their stems twisting around each other in an unmoving dance.
A light crescendo of gentle music whispered through the moving foliage, piano keys gracefully playing the perfect

"Obsessed? I 'm not obsessed at all. I could stay away if I wanted to."
Do you want to?
"Er... no."
Oonai 's leaves shuddered in laughter. Normally, this place was one of worship and prayer; the inhabitants of this world would bring offerings to Oonai in exchange for their place in keeping this world alive. Lustella, however, deemed herself an exception. Oonai welcomed her, talked to her, unlike with any other of her neighbors. While Lustella brought stories about her dreams, the Mother would allow her to use her Eyes to look into other worlds, but she only ever watched one. Do tell, Oonai prodded, a sense of eagerness hidden in her voice.
"I was on top of a wooden area with yellow lights and a mass of black shadows to my side. I was sitting on something and I had what those other creatures have; their paws are different.

Recognizable?
"Yes, exactly. If I could find where this... muse came from, maybe that will help me fall back

    On such meditative adventures, the rhythm of my 191 steps per minute inevitably unite with my wandering thoughts to produce music that only I can hear. Conveniently, Schubert’s Impromptu plays today, its tempo scaled to match my gait. I turn left off of familiar Dublin Road onto an unfamiliar forest trail. Through this decision, superimposed with the hopeless, pleading harmonies of the piece, I suddenly understand that the story Schubert was telling in the Impromptu was actually no different than my own story—one of doubtful strife and sweet, sweet success. Like a farmer who would still laboriously sow his seeds into the ground each spring, not knowing how successful the fall harvest will be, I have been conditioned by my music education to invest my free time in pain—whether it manifests itself on a long run, in a practice room, or anywhere else—and let Fate work its magic.…

    Chapter One Zaphkiel sat on the green grass that was beginning to turn yellow, contently watching the pink and orange sky. The trees around him stood still, but the air was stiller as if the whole world were frozen in time. As the sun sank behind the horizon, a cold wind broke the stillness. Red and orange leaves fluttered to life in the gust of wind. Some of them broke free from their branches to dance in the breeze.…

    He was immersed by its serenity; there were no words to describe it. Glistening on blades of grass as the morning sun began to cast its brilliant golden rays across the land, the autumn dawn was born. Famous for the snow white clouds moseying against the duel shades of blues and oranges painted across the picturesque sky, birds simultaneously tweeted out to each other in a chorus. An ancient oak tree proudly guarded the fields, casting a magnificent shadow across the shrubbery that surrounded it.…

    There was a time When a free sun ran across cobalt And fields of lavender drifted o’er canopies of emerald trees To dissolve into the sky; wisps diluting sapphire to amethyst While radiance transformed our eyes in a flurry of colors Into shards of light, revolving around an epicenter of solid fixation And we spent hours staring; eyes glistening in fascination With not a care in the world Like Noah who sent a dove to bring back hope We were at peace with calm Not a matter to worry Nor a worry in mind Peacefully, Blissfully Then as time wove its tapestry in whirlwinds of flashes…

    • 11 Pages

    Even though the Passion Narratives of the four Gospels are very alike in numerous of ways, there are also many important differences among them. The three Synoptic Gospels correlate with one another (because Matthew and Luke go off of Mark), while John’s writings are much different, especially when it comes to chronology. Also, while Matthew and Mark are very similar to each other and almost the same, Luke is different from them and is more similar to John. In addition, an unspecified amount of details, or ever whole episodes, are discovered in only one of the four Gospels. In this research paper, the points that will be discussed will be about the passion narratives and how it is described in the four Gospels.…
