The Scarlet King
“Heather was sleeping well after learning that Betty had heard Edna and they were again free.
Baby Geoffrey even cooperated and did not awaken until an hour before dawn and when he began to demand attention. Heather arose quietly so as not to disturb Daniel. She stirred the coals in the fireplace and stoked the fire. She then picked up her baby boy, and after changing him brought him to the rocking chair by the fire.
There she contentedly nursed him while she watched the flames dance in the fire...place in the early morning darkness. As she watched the flames they began to take shape and soon she visualized her grandmother standing in the fire. Her arm was raised and she was pointing towards the south and said simply, "You must go." Heather blinked her eyes and the image was gone. She leaned back in the rocking chair trying to make sense of the vision, and only then noticed that baby Geoffrey had stopped suckling and just now resumed. She sat there quietly with the shawl around her shoulders even after the baby was back asleep.MoreLess
