Treatment: Keeping Myself Warm in the Dark

the figure in the center of the bookmark holds a turquoise flame in their palms at chest-height. It radiates and beams. The figure is mostly dark indigo, but the turquoise light hits the bottom of their face, the tops of their eye sockets, their arms, and down the tops of their body parts. Their hair is wild and blowing magically, it too has the turquoise light. The scan didn't capture it well, but the turquoise has golden shimmer particles in it, and the dark green radiant lines and hair, face, and fire details reflect vibrant glowing metallic emerald in the light.

Treatment: I am proud to have found ways to keep myself warm in the dark.
Thank you for the company.

Having you here, to share the darkness, and these cave paintings with, means more than I can say.

Happy disability pride month.
