" Mary".
The young girl opened her eyes. She glanced around the dark room. " Yes".
" Under your bed". It was a soft woman's voice.
From under the bed, Mary pulled out a blanket. Inside was the ivory idol she had found.
" There, that's better".
Mary gazed into the beautiful goddess's face. " Who are you?".
" My name is Ashara".
Mary smiled. It was a beautiful name.
" Please put me in the daylight". The soft voice hesitated, " I have been wrapped in darkness for a long time".
Mary put the idol at the foot of her bed.
" Thank you Mary".
Mary went back to sleep.
