In Their Own Story

Goliath stood upon the precipice, the mist swirling around his stone feet. Below lay the lush, impossible greenery of Avalon, glowing with an inner light. He looked back toward Manhattan, invisible in this realm but heavy on his heart. The promise was made; the debt was paid. With a final glance at Angela, he turned to face the void that would carry him home.
