Episode Twenty-Six: "The Trial of the Three Signs — Part Two: The Light"

Danica's episode. In the Hollow of Silences, alone, in total dark — not frightening-dark, just very, very dark. She walks in the dark and isn't frightened. She is curious. She thinks about everything that has made the Light Between come: laughter, love, warmth, belonging. She thinks about Nibbler's wave. About Prism's gold coat. About her father at breakfast. She spreads her fingers and laughs — a big, genuine laugh at everything and nothing — and the light comes. Blazing, spreading, filling the cavern to every corner, bouncing off the crystal ceiling, illuminating a space that has been dark since before anyone can remember. When she walks out, blinking cheerfully, the whole group is standing in her light. Dion is on one knee. He looks at her — at his three-year-old daughter who has just lit a cavern that no one could light — and he says: "Hello, morning star." She says: "Hello, Dad." Second sign blazing.
