Master Mind has brought Amahle from her dream back to Justin’s dream, where we’re all waiting for her.

Back on the deck of Bonny’s Revenge, Elvis, her seeing eye dog reappears. Along with the cane in her right hand, which she moves to her left.

We wait for her to explain what the danger was that she sensed around us before she disappeared and woke up.

“I do not know what it was,” Amahle says. “I have never felt anything like it. It felt like someone was hitting me in the head.”

“What?” Joy is concerned. After all, nothing had been close to any of our heads.

“It was a pounding,” Amahle continues. “From inside my head. Like something was pushing me to the ground.”

S02E228 Suns of the Eternoon, Part 4, Joy’s Touch

Age: 7, Told by Grampa Walt

There is a deep sense of strangeness when Amahle disappears. Johannesburg disappears. The sunset disappears. And the full light of the two suns return. The half-darkness, was caused by Amahle. Now that I think about it, its creation was also aided by Joy holding Amahle’s hand.

And then there’s silence. Strange, awkward silence.

“What the hell happened?” Colin asks.

Joy is looking at her own hands.

“Joy,” Justin moves closer to her. “Do you know what happened? Do you know what she was talking about?”

S02E227 Suns of the Eternoon, Part 3, Amahle’s Sunset

Amahle puts her right hand to her temple. “I will try.”

The last sunset disappears and all around us, on top of the permanent ocean, the streets of Johannesburg appear.

“Can you see it, Joy?”

We all look around. “We see Johannesburg, Amahle,” Madelyn says. “But there is no sun.”

Joy reaches out to hold Amahle’s left hand, but Amahle raises it to her temple as well. “Sun,” she says. “Sun.”

And a sun appears right above the horizon. An orange sun about to set. Unlike all other sunrises, this time the sun’s light does not influence the sky. The blue sky doesn’t change color. Just there, at the bottom, there is powerful, setting orange sun.

“Why are we here, Madelyn?” Justin says.

She had asked to take us to the middle of the ocean.

“I think it is time to show little Zhoy the things she cannot see in this world.”

“Like what?” Joy says.

“Zhoy, in this world you can see anything. But one thing you have never seen, I believe, is a sunset.”

“What’s a sunset?”

“In the…uhm…waking world,” Madelyn says. “The sun rises on one side, goes up, and goes down on the other side.”

#131: Eternoon

Guy Hasson
Age: 2, Told by The Red Dragon

Dragon Father and Dragon Little sailed the ocean of the hawk people after a victorious adventure. 

Instead of flying home, they stopped to look at the suns begin to set. On their own ocean the suns never set. 

“It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” Dragon Father held little Dragon Little on his arms as they looked at the pink and orange hues of the sky.
