This room spoke to Anton, and he took a seat when directed. The acoustics of the room were something that as a musician Anton could appreciate and feel. Anton decided to close his eyes, and just let the sound speak to him. For the first time since he had arrived here, he opened his mind and let it wander.
And his gift disappeared. Not because it was gone because as The Luminar began to speak of the elements, the emotions of others were carried away as he became lost in the emotions of another.
Earth - He descended into the Earth full of sadness at a lost love, but a resolve to move forward through the a dark tunnel that threatened to overcome him - the darkness held back only by a song.
Water - A ferryman, barring his path, making a decision to allow the man to cross.
Fire - The lair of a god, passage granted in reluctance by the master
Air - A bargain - loved returned - but at a cost
Spirit - a return to the Earth above - doubt - failure - and death.
Suddenly he was brought back to reality, the emotions of those around him flooded his senses. Had he not "left" they wouldn't have been so overwhelming. But those - filled with the images from before hit him like a brick. The images - they had felt more real than dreams - Anton knew what they referred to. Not long ago, he had played the part on the stage, but why? Why did this place bring them to his mind, and why so vividly.
Anton wasn't sure when the tears had started falling. He remained silent, not aware that any questions had been asked, instead he wrapped his arms around himself. He focused his senses on the Luminar, who for some reason was completely blank to him. He found some stability in that. Still, his heart beat heavily in his chest and he shivered as if cold.
