"I believe in you... and if you are by my statue, pray if need be. I will do everything I can to support you as well."
Ourania squeezes his hands gently.
"Take care of them, my dear Bitter Moon. And take care of yourself, as well. I'd cry if I were to learn you were in poor health, you know. You wouldn't want that, would you?" She smiles like she's making a joke but she's very serious.
...
But it's almost time to wake.
Ourania leans down and presses a soft, motherly kiss to Cacao's forehead.
"It is time to wake now, dear one. Be safe. I believe in you."
And Cacao will awaken, the hazy purple dawn shining through the window.
