Lazarus Heart: Found in the mist
*episode 10*

Sango and Kiri have been climbing for some time now. The have covered several hundred meters laterally and are making good time. Sango calls, “Kiri, you said that there was something you wanted me to see. What is it?” Kiri, who is leading, responds, “I’m going to show you my islands.” Puzzled, Sango asks, “Do you mean we’ll be able to see the ocean?” Chuckling, he tells her, it will be better if you wait and see. Eventually, the climb becomes completely vertical and Sango is forced to focus all of her attention on the rockface. It is during this stretch that they clear the mist and emerge into the open sky. Kiri connected them together with a strong rope before beginning the climb, and he continues with the confidence of one who has done this many times before. When at last he reaches a deep ledge, he climbs onto it and reaches down to help Sango up. Tired, Sango reclines against the cliff and looks to Kiri. He passes her a bamboo tube filled with water which he had carried at his waist. After drinking, Sango looks at him expectantly. “Look.” he says, gesturing outward. Sango takes a moment to take in her surroundings and is awestruck. Stretched out before her are the pass and the mountains beyond. A sea of fog blankets the rocks. However, the highest peaks thrust out above; islands in the mist. Sango takes a long minute, stunned by the shear natural beauty. Finally, she says, “Wow…” Kiri says, “I thought you’d like it. These are my islands; nobody sees them but me.” She continues to stare, and Kiri lets her be for many minutes. Finally, he says, “The climb down is almost as hard as the climb up. We should go.” Kiri moves toward the edge, but Sango grabs his wrist. “Just a few minutes more.” she says. Smiling, he nods.
