Challenge: Telepath
Title: Charmed Sleepers
Rating: Fully Adult
Author: Brighid
Summary: There will be only silence
Pairing: Elizabeth/Male
Note:
In the beginning when the sun was lit
The maze of things was marshalled to a dance,
Deep in us lie forgotten strains of it,
Like obsolete, charmed sleepers of romance.
And we remember, when on thrilling strings
And hollow flutes the heart of midnight burns,
The heritage of splendid, moving things
Descends on us, and the old power returns.
– Quoted by Jane Harrison: Prolegomena to the Study of Greek Religion
