One loneliness for two. For an eternity
How I miss you, Wisp. You really were my sister. No, even closer. Sister - still something separate, and you were a part of me. Yes. Was.
Why do you need the power of a lamp, Wisp? Can not you see that this is not good? I can not get out of the lamp, it's not even a flaw. This is my curse. We are forever locked in the endless void of my fantasies, and those sweet moments of false freedom are empty. With each thirteenth desire, we will come back to our loneliness again and again, and this will continue for an eternity.
You can not fight for such a long time. Both you and I understand this perfectly, but you persist in hiding behind these fragments, like behind a wall. And I can not find any consolation. Even this smoke does not give me comfort when I fill myself up to the brim. Even honey can not destroy my solitude. He only covers it with a light smoky coverlet, which is carried away by any gust of wind. We re-read all the books for this eternity, changed our minds about everything possible! There are only us from each other. And more than anyone and nothing.
I'm tired of hiding in these walls. They squeeze me. This false sun fries me worse than the sun of the Sahara - a poor dying traveler. I am constantly in oblivion, but all of it ends sometime. Even an all-powerful genie can not make a dream so long that it lasts from one lamp owner to the next. And you perfectly know this. Sister.
If only I could see you through these fragments. You hid behind them, like behind a fortress wall. I would also hide, if not for the eternity of loneliness, which I already lived. You do not understand why I created you. You are not bound by the laws of the lamp.
Mirrors here are not stronger than parchment. Blow on them - and they fall asleep sand, or or turn into snakes. It's probably my fear. Or maybe this is your fear? After all, we still have one loneliness for two. For eternity. I let the sand flow around me. This gives some illusion of life when I really fear for my being. However, I also just think it up. After all, we are immortal, and even more so we can not get injuries inside the lamp. Any injury is immediately healed, because the flesh in the world of a magic lamp is also an illusion.. In what you can be convinced by own example. The shadow can not find flesh outside the lamp, except the time of total eclipse. At this time you are all-powerful.. As I. Like my shadow.
