(Celestial Dynasty)

"The stars were the only omnipresent part of her existence, looming in the vague distance beyond the cold atmospheric rush.  And even those brilliant, beaming bodies were temporary– they would eventually change, just as she would grow into different ideas of the same woman, across centuries, across millennia.  When we was alone, she was reunited with the silence of her childhood.  Standing at the window, she was desperately trying to find companionship with the cosmos.  It was in this night air that she saw the shadows move in an unnatural way, shifting her mesmerized thoughts back into the present.  She felt her isolation reverse without consent, and peered back into the abyss of a quiet home, an empty room with nothing but the fire light to guide her gaze."
