Beacons
I've felt the fires in the distance, finally getting up close to one of the beacons. For a long time the fires scared me. The only shine for so long, before they are fed for the path, for my path. To continue in search of the next, and the next, and the next. Eventually, all the large ones will have been used as feed. The search will continue for subtler and subtler fires. Until finally, you notice, the whole world glows.
