Astounding it was the images beneath the dim glow of the night, though barely seen, the breeze had brushed them upon his skin, searching throughout billions of pieces of sand to find nothing but a billion more. Though this would seem as a moment to begin, he only to become uplifted, admire this new life.
To be accustomed to the places of the stars, seeing the movement of the sand dunes which flow easily towards the east, and some towards the north through these unusual winds, was he left determined by a certain calculation that they rise and fall two inches every few minutes depending by the winds velocity.
By the calculation of Satomi they rose and fell twenty-six feet in six hours, upon this very night. Moving like the waves of the sea across the entire world, circling around twenty-three point seven thousand miles, east to west, twenty-three point two thousand miles, north to south.
It's a wide area for one to get lost in the sands. For one to disappear and perish, the thoughts of such things came so vicious to Daniel, he couldn't help but to think of it from time to time. Now more than before when he found himself standing amongst the dunes in the cold night and the thoughts of October cross him, her still gaze pierced him, her smile.
It was mesmerizing, he though how she would love to see this night.
