How did Aughra lose her eye?

Answered by Robert Flynn

Aughra, a wise and ancient being, found herself in the presence of the Crystal during the momentous event known as the Great Conjunction. This rare celestial alignment held great significance for the world and Aughra, being intimately connected to the planet and its cosmic energies, felt compelled to witness it firsthand. With her deep knowledge of the universe, she understood the power and potential that this event held.

As the Great Conjunction drew near, Aughra positioned herself near the Crystal, for she knew that it would be the epicenter of the cosmic energies that would be unleashed. The Crystal, a source of immense power and wisdom, emitted a blinding light that was both awe-inspiring and overwhelming. As Aughra gazed upon it, the intensity of its brilliance proved to be too much for her mortal eyes to bear.

In that moment, a searing pain shot through Aughra’s eye, leaving her momentarily disoriented. She instinctively recoiled, realizing that her eye had been injured by the intense light. The Crystal’s power, though meant to bring enlightenment and healing, had inadvertently harmed her.

Despite the pain, Aughra remained steadfast and resolute. She knew that this was not an act of malice on the part of the Crystal but rather a consequence of her own mortal limitations. As a being deeply connected to the natural world, she understood the delicate balance between light and darkness, creation and destruction.

In her wisdom, Aughra recognized that the Crystal held the power to heal her wounded eye. She beseeched the urSkeks, the enigmatic beings who emerged from the Crystal during the Great Conjunction, for their aid. The urSkeks, ambassadors of light and bearers of great knowledge, recognized Aughra’s importance and the role she played in the cosmic order. They willingly heeded her plea for help.

With their combined wisdom and power, the urSkeks worked their magic, channeling the energies of the Crystal to heal Aughra’s injured eye. Their gentle touch and profound understanding of the natural world brought forth a miraculous transformation. Aughra’s eye, once damaged by the blinding light, was restored to its former glory, and she could once again see the world with clarity and depth.

This encounter between Aughra and the urSkeks marked a pivotal moment in their shared journey. Aughra, forever grateful for their assistance, recognized the urSkeks as ambassadors of peace and enlightenment. They had not only healed her physical wound but also deepened her understanding of the interconnectedness of all beings and the power of the Crystal.

In the end, Aughra’s loss of her eye served as a reminder of the delicate balance between light and darkness, creation and destruction. It was a testament to her resilience and unwavering commitment to the pursuit of knowledge and understanding. And as she continued her journey, Aughra carried the lessons learned from this experience, forever grateful for the healing touch of the urSkeks and the wisdom of the Crystal.
