"Get out!" Were the first words I heard when I awoke. I opened my eyes and saw…nothing. Everything was black. I could hear what sounded like fighting. It sounded like two large bodies crashing against each other repeatedly, nonstop. It stopped, for a second, while the two beings talked. "Why are you here?!" "To stop you from hurting this boy! You know he will be your end Rhita Gawr!" "Damn you Dagda!" Rhita Gawr bellowed. I'm guessing he left because I heard nothing else but a soothing voice. Perhaps it was this Dagda person. "You have lost your eyesight, young one. A most unfortunate event this is. But maybe…" I felt a slick presence upon my forehead. Dagda whimpered. "It cannot be helped, I am sorry." I felt the presence leave me, Dagda left me. My only company left me. I was blind, with no one to accompany me. I screamed, as an incinerating pain engulfed my eyes. I clawed my eyes, hoping to rid myself of the pain, but to no avail. It eventually subsided, and my cheeks were stained with the unlimited flow of tears that had come from my eyes. I looked at my clothes, and murmured, "I've got tear stains all over my clothes, and now I'm going to die." I froze. I knew there were tear stains on my clothes. How? I heard a voice in my head. You have been gifted, young one. You have received the second sight. With this you may sense what is around you, but you will never see with your eyes again. You will from now on see with your mind. The voice left me. I felt of my eyes, and felt a very long scar. I swallowed, and traced the scar lightly with my fingertip. It extended from my eyebrow down to my chin. I then heard a slight moan and I remembered the young woman. I focused very hard on the things around me, attempting to use my second sight to see something. Alas, I could not. Frustrated, I hit the ground, and I hit something fleshy. "Unnngh," the woman moaned Oh no! I hit the woman! I must help her, I thought, but how, when I cannot see? I had to help anyway. I managed to stand up. Well, there's a start. I then groped around until I found the young lady and hoisted her on my back, while trying to steady myself. I knew I could not walk until I found that tree again. So I got on my knees, with her on my back, and groped around until I finally found my sacred tree. I crawled into the hole and set the woman up the best I could; my second sight had actually began to work, I could sense some colors. After I had the woman sat up I crawled near and huddled near her, so we could survive the night without freezing to death. It had been an extremely long day, and my bones told me that repeatedly, pulsing with pain. I sighed, then fainted again.
