Light Defiant
Read Light Defiant
The hillside was afire with light. Buildings jumbled together, windows, doors, roofs, walls, chimneys, cupolas, all manner of architectural exuberance and skill, brilliantly illuminated under the cold sky. Burning red-gold, pink, orange, green, blue. A conflagration of life, a beacon reflected in the chill waters at the foot of the hill, lancing up to the far stars. "See us!" shouted the lamps, the candles, the white-hot filaments and globes filled with excited elementals, the phosphorus and cold-lights, the sparks and flares and burning-glasses. "Watch us hold the night at bay until the day-star dawns, and the creeping dark will drown."

Excessively Tolkienesque it may be, but I love it!
