In the ruins of a forgotten hall, where prayers once echoed and now only ashes remain, stands a woman in a heavy robe of smoky black fabric that looks as if it has been woven from charred moss. Her presence is still, unmoving - but everything around her is alive.
Four glowing glass spheres float around her. Inside them: a blazing stag, two bells, a burning candle - symbolising the four elemental forces at work between memory and revelation. The stag: the animal of boundaries, the guardian. The bells: Reminder and call. The candle: the last light in the twilight.
A fine mist rises from its breath, mingling with the smoke from the glass globes. The boundary between inside and outside becomes blurred. It seems like a relic from another time - or a prophet of what is to come when everything else has long since fallen.
"The Guardian of the Glass Fires" is not an indictment. It is the echo of an old oath, a silent promise to that which must not be forgotten.
A picture of sombre beauty that takes your breath away. It is a reminder that some guardians do not fight - they remain. Even when everything else is burning. Even when only smoke and signs remain.
