“Why not see which is brighter: your aura or the sun?”

“Auras tell a lot, Rose, and I'm very good at reading them. Much better than you friends probably are. A spirit dream wraps you own aura in gold, which is how I knew. Your personal aura is unique to you, though it fluctuates with your feelings and soul. When people are in love, it shows. Their auras shine. When you were dreaming, yours was bright.

“He was alone in the darkness once more, but the darkness became brighter and brighter until it was burning like the sun.”

“we're anything brighter than even the sun”
