7 7 Earthly emotions

Gold felt fluid and hot again like her old self. The distance between them was closing, as they gradually drifted closer to each other. She felt that old magnetic pull from before her transformation. Joon was silently caller her near to him, and she could not help but answer. Gold wasn't back in the center of Earth. This was on the surface, near a beautiful lagoon in a cavern. She wonder what it was about him that was now turn Gold insides to liquid.

The vibrations of energies were all around her. In every corner and crests they became visibly clear. The entire cavern had life moving throughout it, everywhere. She could see what she did not notice before. Her mind in this realm expanded.

Joon seemed noticeably fatigued. Sweat had developed on his brow and his breath was a bite labored. When Gold looked into his eyes she could see a heat pulsing and coiling inside him. The red and greens dance with fever under her gaze. He sat upright and composed.

Joon instructed in a slight breathless tone, "Look at your hands."
