Evening

Huginn: And so all men are equal, and we argue about what it means.

Muninn: It is what was said at the beginning. It is not to say there is no advantage at all. It is merely that what men think of as advantage — wealth, power, immortality, health, success — is not necessarily advantage at all.

H: So when the sun sets, all things are equally dark, and as it rises, all things are equally lit, if one considers the arc of its path and the radius of its light. It still seems unfair.

M: That is true, but it is more that we see as if the moon is the sun, not knowing what the sun is. Sunset and evening star, and one clear call for me, is all I ask.

H: But the bar is often not the same for all crossings of it. And it is hard for some encumbered to cross so easily.

M: Twilight and evening bell, and after that, the dark. But remember, dear one, it is an evening — an opportunity for all things, great and small, to be evened out.
