The people that were projected all around us continued smiling and talking
amongst themselves. The children were happy and running everywhere,
and the animals that were brought to us, both known and unknown, were
now being taken away. We started to climb again. The people didn’t look at
us as we departed. They only scattered. Slowly we glided through Kaa’s
sky.
In the distance I again saw several circular formations, similar to the one
we had just visited. Again I saw many flowers, as well as rivers and
beautiful lakes. You could also the people enjoying these. None of them
were aware of our presence. The landscape could really be described as
paradise. The vegetation was abundant and the colors of the flowers really
stood out. Though my breathing had returned to normal, the fear of falling
from that high up was still with me. The human and his companions still
stood in the same place. I could still feel ground beneath my feet, but it
looked like we were flying. We all seemed to be moving at around 20 miles
per hour. The landscape beneath our feet drew back like a big curtain.
In the air you could see different birds as well as what we’d consider
prehistoric flying animals. Though everything I was seeing was beautiful,
my heart still harbored terror and panic. It beat in such a way that I was
sure if I looked I’d see it beat through my white sweaty shirt. “Was all this
real?” At the time I thought that maybe I had suffered and accident on the
road of La Bajura on my way from work and that maybe this was ‘the other
side’. My mind slipped in and out from time to time so I wasn’t sure what
was real and what was not. Thought the human wearing the black clothes
had told us about his home, I was still terribly confused. In this state of
confusion, with my heart beating out of my chest and my eyes open like a
dead fish, I kept gliding through Kaa’s sky with the others.
