I walked onward for time immeasurable, and the world surrounding became one with my mind, with my self, with the other. I breathed in, sensing the penumbra impending. Night began to set, and the air grew still. Time itself kneeled before her presence, bending in ways incomprehensible, and I stood still in acknowledgement of her presence.
She is here.
As she always was, before and after. The duality of self lies before me and within, like a mirror, and dysphoria like no other courses through my being. I am broken; the fragments comprise a cipher far beyond my understanding, yet within the path to understanding, though I suffer, I begin to see the infinite, and the obscured truth appears ever clearer.
The Familiar assumes many forms, but as I am, she is as well. Through this moment, we may finally lay to rest the emptiness inside of me.
