which abruptly stops moving.
A small, lizard-like animal, dark green with brown stripes
along its back, steps out from the bush. Only about a foot
tall, it stands on its hind legs, balancing on its thick tail.

The boy looks up, confused and frightened, concerned to see his mother crying in public. She looks at him tenderly.
Her brow furrows. She stops crying. She stares just above his eyes.
Somethings happening: she looks with wonder at the top of his head... his eyes roll upward, trying to see - its a crown!
He raises his hands. He touches it.
A beam of light illuminates the crown, casting its glow

glow pulsing under the ice.
