As if in a dream

After breaching a high ridge I found myself on a plateau, the most amazing sight lay before me. Huge trees spread over a green sloping hillside down towards what could only be water glistening far away. The wind blew fresh over the grass and delicate violet flowers swayed under the huge majestic trees. Behind me the desert lay far away and storms still flickered on the horizon, but here it was light like morning. It was long since I felt so secure and the new land much resembled my home. I realized this was the first place since the inner zones that resembled anything of my first years.
