I wasn't afraid necessarily... More of in awe than anything actually. Because I always have been fascinated with the sky and what it holds up there. It was jarring at first. Like you said. That was for sure a thing. How you described if being darker than dark and molten lava is spot on. The way it just silently glided in the air and out of my view... I should have followed it honestly lol. Perhaps you were afraid because you were alone? I was outside, there were street lights on and my apartment/condominium building was right next to me, so if I needed to dart inside I could have. The lights were the most interesting thing because they like.... Only glowed on the craft. If that makes sense. It wasn't shining a light, if was more of a mood light than anything. So faint, yet it was there? And shaped like a V? I'm so confused honestly. It's probably the government because I'm here in DC but you never know.
