"Lighter. More hopeful." I had not heard him come in. I set down my brush and stepped back to look at what I had created. He was right. The paintings had shifted.

I wanted to call Chelsea but I went against it and placed back my phone on the table. Maybe I would call her later. I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.

It was full of chains and dead skeletons. The place gave me the chills. Something was written on the wall in a red substance. BEWARE YOUR END IS NEAR.

Prologue When I was a child, I enjoyed listening to my mother's stories. Portraying the never-ending struggle between darkness and light. I would always look forward to her stories, which would be very entertaining. She always told me darkness represents malevolence, while light represents positivity and virtue.

The resounding message she would consistently convey in her stories is that light will perpetually prevail over the darkness.

Ernest said again, as if the words needed to be spoken aloud to be fully received. "The light returns," Don said. "That is what the Norway piece is about. Not just the return of the light after the dark. The relationship between the two. The way that the dark makes the light precious. The way that the cold makes the warmth precious. The severity makes the beauty precious."

He said Friedrich spent weeks sitting in the freezing dark, trying to catch the exact moment the light dies and the shadows take over. He was obsessed with the idea that the dark isn't empty—it's just a different kind of living." Maya’s eyes lit up, a brilliant spark of inspiration dancing in them.
