Previous Chapter:
Some Months Later
After the flight down to Antares, Touzdae flew a transport to their retreat house. The process of Jac’s healing was slow compared to the acceleration of his healing on the Fish and within the Arc. He remained in the Medi-Chamber. The retreat house, located in a remote valley, envisioned by Touzdae and Jac as home. It would be the birthplace of their children, assuming Jac recovered. Emmons and Kristos helped carry the Medi-Chamber to the cabin’s ground floor.
Healers came to work on Jack in the chamber. Six healers augmented the healing of his skin and nerve tissue.
Suke (pronounced Sukee) joined Touzdae at the retreat one month later as healer and companion. Jac’s skin healed in three months. He continued to remain unconscious.
Two small boys ran through the jungle with deep tans and close to naked. They laughed as they ran. They ran, fell, and tumbled in a melee of tickling and peels of laughter.
“You me Fama,” the short one pointed. “me boy. You fama.” The shorter toddler squealed — laughing. The taller one pointed back.
The taller toddler ran down the path to the deep blue freshwater sinkhole. Fed by hot springs and a waterfall — it flowed into a mighty stream in the jungle. He latched onto a vine and swung out over the pond. And let go.
Let go, a voice manifested from beyond.
SPLASH! A few seconds later — SPLASH. Two boys drifting down in the water, swimming round and round each other. Did they have gills? Or they could hold their breaths longer…
All day, running and jumping. The shorter toddler was scooped up by his mafa.
Suke observed and remembered.
“It feels as if he’s off on some adventure in deep space,” Touzdae remarked at least once a week. Touzdae, already a slender fit woman, lost weight. Suke noted without seeing the reason.
“Touzdae,” Suke called out one morning when she could not find her. She searched all the usual places. Her intuition drew her to the Medi-Chamber.
Ah, Suke thought with relief. Touzdae had lost the weight so she could crawl into the chamber next to Jac and sleep with him. They hadn’t slept together for a long time. She slept by his side for three days. Suke responded to Touzdae’s need to get out.
Name? The short boy child asked through thought and love.
Ack, you say in me mind, Po received.
A circle of light deposited Touzdae near the pond in the living moments of dusk. Po slept in the embrace of a she lion. Ack was nearby with a he lion at the edge of the meadow and the trees.
She felt Ack awaken.
Ack will you join us? her mind filled with love and inclusiveness.
Ack and the lion moved toward Touzdae. The four fell to sleep. They dreamt of light. Not ordinary light — streamers of multicolored luminous lights… Blues, turquoise, yellows, reds, mauve, and purples, all pulsing and connecting. They played in delight…
After Touzdae’s experience with Jac in the Medi-chamber she felt the bond with his body and some of his spirit. On Terra Earth, she met with and played with Po and his friend Ack. She slept long while caressing her being in dreamtime in the night and the light of morning. In the cabin, she baked and cooked meals. Together Suke and Touzdae feasted for weeks.
Ack no-hips, no-legs, Po laughed sending the thought.
“Me see my hips and legs,” Ack said aloud.
Light here, Po tapped Ack’s head, shoulders, chest, and abdomen. He transmitted thoughts: no light in hips, legs. See?
Before Ack could answer his body, mind, heart, and soul derezed.
Come back Ack, Po thought.
