The Legend of Spyro: Kingdom Come
Remembrance
For the first time in minutes, I could breath. I knew I was unconscious, but my senses were in tact. I could smell, hear, and see. But through my unconsciousness? How? Was this a dream, or not?
"Awaken…"
I stirred, but refused to get up.
"Your time has come once again…"
I heard a voice, but it made no echo. Who or what was speaking to me?
"Get up! The world needs you once again…"
I finally stood. "Why? Who are you? Who am I?"
"You are the key to the heart, to the soul, to everything around you…"
Understanding noting, I kept playing along. "Why awaken me? How am I the key?"
"There is no how or why, there just is. You are the key. That's all. Your heart is stolen. That is how and why you are the key."
Heart? Stolen? Key? What did this all mean. "If my heart is stolen, what good am I?"
"It can be found. Just follow your heart and the door will open."
"But you just said that my heart was stolen. How can I follow it if it isn't there?
"Your heart was stolen, but your heart is still inside you. All you need to do now is find it."
"And then the door will open." Whatever the voice wanted me to do, I knew it must be done also. I must follow my heart and the door will open.
I walked on, forgetting the how's and why's and focused on the task at hand. Questions rattled my mind but I ignored them. But I focused also on one question.
"Who am I?"
"The first lock has been found. To unlock your Identity, your soul must be found."
"Isn't my soul part of my heart?"
"your heart gives you purpose, your soul gives you identity, your mind gives you life, your strength give you form."
"I wish to find my soul."
"Then find It you shall."
Suddenly, It became clear to me, all of it. "My…my name is Spyro!"
"The name that was forgotten has been remembered."
"I want my form back"
"It will be done."
Looking down, I saw my shape. Purple scales. I was a dragon no doubt. Wings on my back and talons on my feet and hands. Feet? Hands? I was standing on my hind legs without trouble! "This isn't the body that I remember."
"This form is a gift, only rewarded to the key."
"Figured as much" I thought to myself. "I would like the rest of my memories back."
"Then they shall be received."
My head all at once was flooded with my past adventures, the struggle with the eternal night, the fight with Malafor, and…"
" Cynder! I must find Cynder!"
"Your heart has been found. You now have a soul purpose. Find Cynder, and complete your task. Find Cynder and…"
"…Open the door."
I remember the final days of my life, when I was only a child.
