A brilliant flash of light pierced the fog, and Pulsar appeared before her. Her form was human and ethereal, a figure cloaked in light with eyes holding the universe’s secrets.
Candace noticed this island, devoid of human presence, was breathtaking. Its beauty was unparalleled, its charm irresistible. The emerald canopy of trees swayed gently in the breeze, the azure waters kissed the sandy shores, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of exotic flowers. Yet, the absence of people cast a mysterious veil over it. It felt natural, but she just wasn’t sure. She saw the figures within the fog. Shadows stirred, and these lost souls, their footsteps leaving no trace, were these people seeking redemption.
This was a supernatural case.
Candace had always been sensitive to the unseen, the in-between. She had been drawn to this island by a dream, a whisper on the wind, a pull she couldn’t resist. The fog thickened as she wandered deeper into the island’s heart, and the shadows became more distinct. These figures, ghostly and translucent, moved with purpose yet seemed trapped in an endless loop of sorrow and longing.
It was customary to call the guardians in such situations. Each country had its protectors of the supernatural balance. Pulsar was the American guardian of immense power and ancient wisdom. Candace reached for the small, intricately carved amulet around her neck, a gift from Pulsar. With a deep breath, she whispered the incantation that would summon her.
A brilliant flash of light pierced the fog, and Pulsar appeared before her. Her form was human and ethereal, a figure cloaked in light with eyes holding the universe’s secrets.
“Candace,” she greeted, her voice resonating like a melody. “You have done well to call upon me.”
“These souls,” Candace began, gesturing to the shadows. “They seem lost, searching for something. I think they need help.”
Pulsar nodded, her gaze shifting to the spectral figures. “These are the remnants of those who have passed but cannot move on. They are tethered here by unfinished business, regrets, or unresolved trauma. To free them, we must understand their pain and guide them to the light.”
Together, Candace and Pulsar approached the nearest figure. It was a young woman, her eyes filled with sorrow. Pulsar reached out, her hand passing through her form, and closed her eyes.
“Her name is Eliza,” Pulsar said softly. “She perished in a shipwreck many years ago. She waits for a lover who promised to return for her.”
Candace felt a pang of sadness. “What can we do for her?”
“She needs to know the truth,” Pulsar replied. “That her lover did not abandon her but met the same fate. They are both here, trapped by their guilt and sorrow.”
Candace turned to the fog, her voice authoritative. “Eliza, your love is here. He has been searching for you as well. You can find each other and move on together.”
The fog shifted, and another figure emerged, a young man with eyes full of longing. Eliza’s form brightened, and the two spirits moved towards each other, their hands meeting in a tender, ghostly touch. In an instant, they both faded, the air around them shimmering with a soft, golden light.
“Thank you,” Pulsar said, her voice filled with gratitude. “Your compassion has set them free.”
Candace felt a warmth in her heart, a sense of peace. “How many more are there?”
“Many,” Pulsar admitted. “But with each soul we help, the island’s beauty will shine even brighter. Together, we can restore the balance.”
And so, Candace and Pulsar continued their work, moving through the fog, reaching out to the lost souls, and guiding them to the light. Once shrouded in mystery and sorrow, the island began to glow with a new, radiant energy. You will like this.
