Amethyst

Glancing across the room, you catch your reflection in a dusty mirror, and gasp. The pendant glimmers on your chest, the same beautiful amethyst color as your eyes, seeming to draw all the light in the room into its shining center. Unconsciously, your hand steals to the gem, caressing it wonderingly. The light intensifies, reflecting from your wide eyes and throwing the rest of the room into shadow. All outside noises seem to cease, and there is only the brilliant, pure flame of the jewel, changing and growing and flickering, and utter silence, though your mind fills with strange music that somehow isn't sound, but something more real.
The light reaches a blinding intensity and everything goes dark. Consciousness slips from your grasp, and you lose all sense of time or place.
