He was made at the same time as Deep Within. That was not an accident.

While she is inside becoming, he is outside holding the world steady. Calm, because he knows his own

strength. Bold, because he does not need to prove it. He holds the moon between his horns and watches over

the rising sun at his feet. The cosmos surrounds him and he stands in it without flinching.

He is not aggressive. He is not loud. He is simply there - unmovable, watchful, yours.

This is what protection looks like when it comes from real strength. Not force. Presence.

Its counterpart is Deep Within. One is becoming. One is already there, waiting.
