Oh, this was my favourite chapter! I love how you wove in the island mythology but left everything ambiguous enough that it was still all about Jack and Sawyer. This was a great example of Jack finding faith in himself to perform the operation and then letting go to trust something less tangible. The idea that maybe Sawyer's injuries had less of a physical motivation was so intriguing. I also found Ben's comments about the whispers reaching the deaf chilling.
Those were the two threads that ran consistently through the wildly inconsistent, crazily-changing riot of island colors.
I loved the epilogue and this paragraph was written so amazingly. It was so visual and so sensible. The comments about the bear and horse felt to right. I also felt like I could see from both Jack and Sawyer's perspectives here.
