This lake holds an untapped power. It was rendered dormant much like Regina was. Me and my mates plus one of this

town’s magic users are the key to unlocking it. After all, lakes hold a sacred place in Native American mythology and

spirituality. Many tribes believe that lakes were created by powerful spiritual beings and are home to spirits and deities. In

Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) culture, lakes are considered living entities with their own spirits. I think that this lake is such an

entity.

Over time, it was angered and released evils upon the inhabitants of this town and now it lies in wait. Before we step into

the lake, I look at the men around me, “We can not enter with any negative emotions. This divine creature has suffered

already for so long that it surrendered to the stranglehold of depression. Focus on light and joy, of reverence, and

respect. Together we can resurrect and restore the guardian of this town!”

My mates each kissed me and told me how much they loved me. That filled me to the brim with joy and love. Love is one

of the most powerful emotions. Love can take, give, and sustain life. I inwardly giggle, since when have I become an

optimist? Regina whispers to me through our link, “We have always been. Now it is time to let all see exactly who we

are!”

We all let out a cleansing breath as we walked knee-deep into the still dark waters of Black Lake. It was ice cold against

my warm bare skin. I hate cold water. I have always hated cold water. Pushing those thoughts aside, I focused on all of the

that has happened recently. I relive those precious moments with my mates, drinking my favorite tea,
