Among the Waiting

People who have long held a vague faith in the legendary Day become profoundly disappointed and start blaming one another in confusion when they open the coffin of the person they expected to rise again only to discover a decayed corpse. Amid the ensuing turmoil a mysterious being shrouded in white light appears yet no one recognizes it and eventually most people leave. In the end only one woman remains by the coffin sorrowful while the being silently watches over her. Finally a man approaches her and the story concludes. Through this journey of waiting belief and the search for truth the tale offers a reflection on the essence of life and the meaning of promises.
