Star People Legacy by Smith, T.L. (feel good books to read .txt) 📕

around me, completing the circle. In the center of the circle were empty blankets, one for each of the fallen, woven with patterns to represent the tribe that had been their Earth home. One was a Cocopah blanket.

Our dead had been buried at the same time as Lutz, but their Spirits were here, waiting. I could feel them. Facing the east, I could see a lightening of the sky. Morning was breaking over the distant mountains, revealing stormy clouds. It was time.

We sang to our Spirits. We sang for all the fallen and one by one they appeared in their places before me. When I called upon Lutz, he popped in and dropped down on the Cocopah tribal blanket. I half-expected a quip, but he remained quiet as we sang for those who were Unbound or chose to leave now.

It was a song carried across the nation, simultaneously. Carried by phones left open to the many tribes. My phone was before me, open to Joey. They were over the ocean now, so everyone aboard heard the song.

The Ci’in with me glowed with the light of a full moon, giving me their strength as I sang louder. I sang alone, even as lightening crackled in the distance. Thunder fittingly rolled like drums behind my voice. Before me the Spirits also started to glow, turning translucent. Turning into pure light.

I sang louder and stronger, my full Ci’in opening the path home for them. They burned with the full energy of their true beings, then spiraled up and away. I sang the last words as Lutz leaned his head back and shifted into his own energy.

He swirled towards me, brushing against me in a final touch. A final message that almost made me start crying. The phone in front of me went dead. The storm clouds opened up as he flew away. He was gone.

They were all gone.
