Where am I from?
A place you've never heard of. A place so far away that the light from my home Sun has yet to reach this planet's event horizon.

How old am I?
I am as old as time, but nary as timeless. I am as old as the eternity that cries out in silence.

Who am I?
I am the daughter of the raging inferno and the endless storms. I am kin to the lightning flash. I am the darkness that envelopes and surrounds. I am the night and the cool moon and the silent stars. I am the deepest ocean and the volcano fire and the airless winds and the latent earth. I am all things unnamed and unknown. I am the dancer dancing alone; I am the song that rises and falls. I am the end of all things, alone and forgotten and broken. I am the graceful, the violent, the innocent. I am darkness, I am sorrow, I am tears.


I am Kynm, Dancer of the Darkk, the Darkkly-Shining.

Where am I from?
A place you know as well as your own self. A place so near to you, so familiar, but yet unidentified and hidden.

How old am I?
I am as young as time, but nary as timeless. I am as young as the time born anew each passing moment.

Who am I?
I am the daughter of the rampant maelstrom and whirling tremor. I am kin to the thunder's cry. I am the light that comforts and heals. I am the day and the fierce sun and the singing stars. I am the peaceful candle flame and the cleansing breeze and the enduring tree and the laughing waterfall. I am all things named and known. I am the singer singing in silence;  I am the movement of the dance. I am the birth of all things, united and remembered and whole. I am the clumsy, the peaceful, the one-who-knows, perhaps too much. I am light, I am joy, I am laughter.

I am Alaen, Singer of the Liyht, the Brightly-Chosen.
These two, Kynm and Alaen, are different. They are not, like much of what I post here, voices that flit into my head, then out once their tale is done. They are, I guess, part of me, my conscience, if you would call them that. But that would limit them. They actually play vital and leading roles in my novel-saga.

This is a sketch of them, but more then that, it is a disillusioning of the human prejudices of Darkk and Liyht. We You name one 'good', the other 'evil', when in fact, those names are entirely a mortal contraption. Think more of the Asian, Yin and Yang; that conception is closer to (my) reality. Without Darkk, there is no Liyht, without Liyht, no Darkk. They are, in essence, One.
