Beyond The Looking Glass is the second book in the Unseen series, a story that came to me from the other side. A story where I thought I was just the narrator until I heard the Words of the Unseen.

This second story goes beyond time and place and mixes the long ago with the here and now. Because history keeps repeating, until we learn and do something about it.

Beyond The Looking Glass - Words of the Unseen - Chapter 19

Dear Reader, different times call for different measures, don´t you agree?

Series like BLACKADDER and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air now carry a “woke” disclaimer warning of discriminatory jokes.

While it seems like yesterday that the whole family laughed and loved those shows.

Dylan said the times they are changing, but he did not specify for the better or worse.

How can one culture decide for another culture what is good, what is proper, and what is dirty and can not be tolerated?

And then finally my waking lights dim as well, and I enter the realm of dreams. My mind calms down for a moment. Although it´s never long enough, because when I wake up I am not yet used to what I do not yet understand.

The stupid thing is that I know it.
I know it but I simply can't reach it yet. And the worst part, I know they do that on purpose. They let you close enough to allow the smell to reach your tastebuds, but you are unable to take the bite until the time comes.

Living with a third eye means a life with a lot of frustration with and a thin layer of chrome, but I shouldn't complain.

What I have to do is light the fire and make the the, but not the the of old. Sei and I have to keep our eyes open, all six of them.

There's so much more going on, and Sei knows it.
I, on the other hand, am like a blind person in an extremely illuminated cage. I feel the warmth of the light but I can't see my own hands if I raise them up to my eyes.

How do I fit these loose pieces into a framework?

Numico, boy, what words did you give me?

"Roads will fork as they should, and your task will be one of the most difficult."

"Together we have managed to change this world, we have adjusted the course on the path of inevitability. You will have to adjust the course of the world again, but not this world. The world far beyond this time, your world one day when you have returned to dust many times."

"Go, friend, be open, because somewhere along the way it will become visible to you."

"I am not going to destroy that insight with my words.
Words before seeing often create blindness and add to the confusion we call life.
When you realize it, and you will, is when it needs to be seen."

And what did Margarita say about the more you know the easier to mess things up?

And then last night´s message.

It feels like one big blur although one thing is clear to me. What is about to happen will take place behind the reflection of this reality.
The path that Sei and I take goes beyond what I can imagine, far beyond this time to a world that I only reach after turning to dust many times.

I literally don't understand any of it, but I do know that it is expected of us. The world of the unseen has so much influence over us, while so few are aware. It´s scary.

Clearly, Sei is here for a reason. She has the ability to enter places where no one belongs. To leave things behind in places she will never visit.

Whatever Margarita has done, those lessons are far from finished and it is also time for me to get up and open up. Time to dust off Oniko's lessons, I will not ask why but now that I am back here near him, I am certain that they are also needed.

Oniko, I will fill his sandals but who was next I had wondered returning home, if not Numico who? That question had become obsolete now, the answer was sleeping and lightly snoring next to me.

There was just one small thing.
The last time my role was filled by a woman must have been back at the sea. Nowadays the council consists only of men.
However, they had no choice, I and only I make the choice, but I would have to be careful.
Not so much because she was a woman, but above all, she was not one of us.

Anyway, I tell myself, it´s not worth worrying about tomorrow's headlines. Not that it worked, but I could still try.

Even though I know this was one of my greatest lessons yet to be learned. But with everything up in the air and changing rapidly it felt as if I might just have enough time to do so.
