Reborn

[Herb]

The soothing sound of waves fill the cave
He wakes to panic as the first wave touches his soles
Rising from the sand he coughs up water and blood
The voices, the voices..
The ones that had driven him mad, no longer can be heard
He had drowned only to be born again, what is his name?
Memories are hazy and the mind is clouded
Standing there for a moment all he can remember is them
The gods, the prophet, the zealots.
Panic strikes again as he realises the cave is being filled with water from the waves
It's not only the panic of the waves, but the emotions he is filled with
The truth claws at him, the waves did not wash away everything
He crawls against the wall until
Until he turns and stands still, the water now rising as it had before
He closes his eyes and smiles
The gods love you, and they want you to know.

Darkness takes hold
Only to be replaced by warm sun and moist air
Opening his eyes infront of him stands a man
He has never seen this man before, but he knows.
The flesh is new but the mind is old.
He is the one the gods have chosen.. Godkin.
His eyes fills with tears
Born anew, rejoice.
