Daylight Arrives

We marched on in the endless night. Despite barely being able to see an inch in front of ourselves, we prevailed. Our efforts paid off. Eventually we saw a ray of light pushing back the night sky. We walked in the direction of light and saw it peal away more dark. We crept closer and closer, and the light pushed away more and more night, until it seemed as though we were going to meet day finally. Unfortunately, the light stopped short of our bubble. It would not go past it, and we could not continue forward with our armor. We made the decision then and there to drop the shield at that exact moment and continue into day, but before we did we took one last look behind us to view the night sky, and then promptly moved forward in the daylight.
