The Elevator

The wind currents swept over Adam's shoulders, lightly ruffling his black hair, which rose slightly longer. His blue eyes grew, not only deeper but filled with the wisdom of painful experiences and accomplishments infused with delight.

His gaze was fixed on the bright sun, which would disappear over the horizon in a few hours and leave its place for the moon.

The moon brought peace and tranquility, just like the countless stars in the night sky.

However, no one would see the moon today, for it was the day of the Eclipse.

Eclipses occurred at night, hiding the moon and causing almost all light to disappear, even in the dark.

Adam had spent the past two days preparing for the Eclipse, more on the informational side. In those two days, however, he'd had time to do some training and eaten enough to fill himself up for a month.
