Inspiration VI




Evening.

Your quest has come to an end. You have the egg, and nothing is going to stop you from opening it. All the way you have followed your instincts, gotten yourself into difficult situations, but you have also managed to get yourself out of them.

Struggling a bit to find out how the opening mechanism works, you finally get it right. The egg is unlocked. It only remains to lift the upper part up. Are you ready to see what it contains? Off course, you are. Silly question.

You open it slowly, and as you do, you notice a bright yellow light coming out. And then the secret is revealed. It's so much more than you had ever dared hope for. If not being the answer to your life or to your dreams, it certainly comes close. You've been looking so long for this. Your morning adventures have truly paid out. You feel rich. You feel honoured. You feel awed.

There, inside the egg, lies one single, golden leaf. And only you know why this leaf is so special to you.

THE END
