Asket Part 2

So I sat on a rock and waited for the thing that indeed still had to come.
And I waited a full half hour before something finally happened: from behind the ship walked a figure, which approached me within a few yards, while quite slowly the illumination from the ship dimmed and then went out.Yet already after a few split seconds the ship glowed again with light and radiated somewhat like twilight.In the weak shine of this twilight I was able to doubtlessly identify the approaching figure as a female person - ASKET, if my senses did not enormously deceive me.And the next actions and the words spoken by the woman already confirmed my assumption.She approached me in a familiar way and I suddenly perceived an enormous, loving sympathy which somehow penetrated me in a peculiarly painful way.
