AN AQUATIC DANCE

  A wave on the surface became perceptible. It continued its undisturbed momentum until it met a stone, a blade of grass, and then the shore. A droplet rose and collided with a dragonfly fluttering at its whim. Now a water bubble defied gravity, hovering over this peaceful lake where serenity and magic reigned. A golden halo emanated from its center. An island suspended by this invisible and powerful force.

  A skilled hand, engaged in a sumptuous ballet, drew in the air with its six supple fingers. Its twin joined and formed a magical dance of stunning beauty, with its only rival being the ocher sky tinted sometimes with rose, sometimes with emerald, with its electric clouds and its three blue suns, forming a captivating canvas.

  The once-calm lake began to vibrate to the rhythm of this strange enchantment. Like a delicate symphony taming this universal element, a myriad of translucent spheres twirled around this creature with azure skin. The small ripples transformed into waves with the epicenter of the eight elongated arms, calligraphing arcane signs.

  Pulsations, even more intense flashes with golden sparks, and whirlpools burst forth from this formerly undisturbed expanse. In a deafening tumult and noise, thunder rumbled, while a bubble of a thousand colors converged on the being with celestial eyes. Opening wide its jaws, its tongue shot toward the firmament, trailing this cosmic globe like a transcendent comet. Three other tongues - incandescent, mineral, and ethereal - merged, forming a tower of countless jewels.

  At its end, the four spheres fused and traced in the cosmos. Thus, the blue planet was born.
